Land en-us https://projects.latimes.com/wardead/name/brett-w-land/#c180376 https://projects.latimes.com/wardead/name/brett-w-land/#c180376 I remember being friends with Brent growing up. We wrestled together and against each other. He was a great guy and I have nothing but great memories of him. I have also served in the Army and in Afghanistan. My thoughts and prayers are with the whole family, friends, and fellow soldiers. I am also looking to find more info on his resting place so I may go and pay my respects. Any info would be greatly appreciated. R.I.P. brother. Missed always but never forgotten. You are a true American Hero.

Last week my son and I were talking about Brett and wondered what Brett was up to. Brett's flips/somersaults were incomparable during his pre-match warm-ups. Our hearts were broken and are hurt to read that Brett gave his life for our country.. Brett was one of a kind.

Congratulation on your new baby. It's so sad he or she won't have the chance to know their father. When you have some time, read in your Bible Psalms 46:9 there it talks about war will be no more and also, at Psalms 37:11 it talks about there will be an abundance of peace all over the earth. These scriptures will be fulfill in the very near future. May Jehovah God , the God of Comfort be with you all.

No words can heal the hurt that his family is feeling but know that we are all truly grateful for his bravery and service to our country. He truly touched our community and he will not be forgotten.
