	R.I.P Clinton Tyler McCormick!	1063 días hace
	Thursday, December 28, 2006 I found out Wednesday night that my friend, Clinton Tyler McCormick, died in Iraq on Tuesday, December 26, 2006. He was on Patrol in a tank truck carrying fuel doing his job when they hit a mine and blew up the truck. His body got thrown from the truck and they think he died emediately on impact. When my friend, Jenny, told me when she saw me I was in disbelief. I didn't know what to think. I was in shock! I just couldn't believe that it was true. I just kept going in my head, "he can't be dead, there ain't no way!" But it's true. The last time I saw him was back in August before he was shipped out to Iraq. I remember him telling me that he was so excited to go to Iraq. He wanted to be there. You could tell that he wanted to fight for his country. He was so proud to be in the Military. He had a rough life growing up. He had a hard time with his family. There were complications with his mom. His brother had turned to drinking for awhile and his sister went off and did her own thing. Tyler was the only one that really knew what he was doing. Well his brother cleaned up and things were good with him now. This is really hard for me because a few years ago I had a crush on him. I believe he knew I did because he picked on me there for a bit. But we stayed friends. Even though he drove me crazy later on.. I still thought of him as a friend. I was scared and happy for him when he got into the Military. When he told me that he might get shipped out to Iraq, I remember thinking that I didn't want him to go. Iraq is a scarey place right now and I don't wanna lose anybody I know to Iraq. The night I found out he's dead, I had a hard time going to sleep. I cried my eyes out! I just kept saying to myself, "He can't be dead! He just can't be dead! There's no way he's dead!" But I have to believe that he is. His brother is taking it pretty hard. When I saw him his eyes were red, filled with tears. I didn't know what to do. All's I could do was hug him. And his sister, Shavonne, is taking it kind of hard too. But for now... R.I.P my friend Tyler. You will be missed greatly! I love you in Christ!!
