GI-JOE Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 (edited) It is with a very heavy heart that I post this transcript from my xfire conversation with speedfact's relative who is also in the military with him: [08:23] =F|A= Speedfact: Hey G.I. Joe. You don't know me but you are on my cousins emergency contact list. [08:24] =F|A= G.I. Joe: please tell me Eric's ok... [08:25] =F|A= Speedfact: I am sorry to inform you that Eric was hit by an IED around 5 hours ago. He is in critical condition as we speak. [08:25] =F|A= G.I. Joe: jesus christ.. [08:26] =F|A= Speedfact: I just got done tell family members [08:26] =F|A= G.I. Joe: is this his CO or a nurse or something? [08:26] =F|A= Speedfact: No this is a family member, I am a staff sergeant in the army so I get news first before the family does about Eric. [08:27] =F|A= G.I. Joe: jesus...that guy is a great friend, not just to me but to all his friends on our clan...this is horrible news [08:27] =F|A= Speedfact: It was what he was hoping for but it does not make my job any easier. [08:28] =F|A= G.I. Joe: I understand, I appreciate you letting us know [08:28] =F|A= Speedfact: Yes I understand he is very fond of all of you. MAkes me wish sometimes that I did not turn him on to Call of Duty games in the first place. [08:28] =F|A= G.I. Joe: Well, believe me we're all glad you did [08:28] =F|A= G.I. Joe: very dear friend [08:30] =F|A= Speedfact: Yeah sorry to tell you the horrible news and run but I have to talk to around four people now all asking for updates. Is there a way I could contact you or something to give you updates? Should I just stay logged on xfire? Would that be better for everyone? [08:31] =F|A= Speedfact: Sorry to ask you all these questions, I just use xfire for games like minecraft not really for chatting. [08:31] =F|A= G.I. Joe: oh no, it's ok I really do appreciate you letting me know this is horrible [08:31] =F|A= G.I. Joe: but it's better than not knowing at all I myself am not a religious man, but my thoughts are with Eric and his family as I'm sure everyone's will be. He's the closest thing to a best friend I (and many others I'm sure) have in this clan and this news is the opposite of what any of us wanted to hear. Edited June 29, 2011 by GI-JOE Quote

Wifestein Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I'm kinda confused, is it speed that got hit? Quote
GI-JOE Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I'm kinda confused, is it speed that got hit? She said it was him, but I'm assuming it was probably a squad/patrol or something Quote
FiveMagic Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Holy shit... Hold on Speed, don't give up. f*** Quote
sicsiksix Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 NOOOOO!!!! Horrible news. Words fail me at a time like this. My thoughts are with you and your family Speed. Quote
Wizbang Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I don't know speed as well as most of you but I have a cousin who is over there and pray every day for his safety. When Joe made the statement in game my heart sunk. As I said my prayers go to him and his family. Quote
Artisan Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Wow, this is horrible :/ At least he's still hanging in there. Quote
