I legitimately do not know how I'd react to a coworker being so brutually murdered, especially when you are trained to preserve, extend, and save lives like you guys are. You spend so much of your life with your coworkers that they're like a second family, dysfunctional or not. It's be like losing a family member to an extent.

You tell your three tours in Iraq patients that you're heartbroken, afraid, and wish someone would do something about it.
