Spc. Victor Pineda is an 11B assigned to A Co, 1-184th Air Assault Infantry, California ARNG. He is a SAW gunner with his unit and has been in Iraq since 01-05.
I recieved a phone call from my sister at 0500 hrs this morning. She was crying when I answered so I knew something was wrong. She had just gotten off the phone with her husband (Victor). He told her he was hit with an IED while on a mission. Victor said he and his team suffered minor injuries and were in the hospital. An Army Chaplain then talked with my sister and said Victor was going to be OK and she shouldn't worry.
I hate hearing bad news about our boys in the middle east. I pray for the quick recovery of Victor and his team.
God bless the U.S. Military and it's Allies.
Fuck terrorists and their supporters.
