Family Grieves for Sons Lost in Iraq
US Sergent Jason Hubbard was repatriated from Iraq over the weekend after his two brothers were killed in action,
echoing the Oscar-winning film “Saving Private Ryan”. Hubbard, 33, returned to his family’s home in northern California
after his younger brother Nathan, 21, was killed in a helicopter crash in northern Iraq last week.
The death came three years after another sibling, Jared, 22, was killed by a bomb in Fallujah in 2004.
Hubbard’s hometown of Clovis is in mourning. An AFPTV voiced report.
