Almost four years ago, Maupin was captured by terrorists. I have seen his picture on many websites - posted by people who wanted to keep his memory alive as his family awaited some kind of word as to his fate.
At least now they know for sure now, although this is grim news.
Keep the Maupin family in your prayers.
Maupin was a 20-year-old specialist driving a supply truck when he was captured on April 9, 2004, after his fuel convoy was ambushed west of Baghdad.
Michelle Malkin has a nice post up (with video), encouraging people to visit the Maupin family website, and their Yellow Ribbon Support Center.
In Iraq, the troops used a West African proverb “love never loses its way home” to describe the search for Maupin, and his family used it, too, in the hope that he would one day come home.
