Danny Chen - Again

This site had previously published a post about the death of Danny Chen, age 19, of New York, who died on October 3, 2011, in Kandahar province, Afghanistan. 

He was assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 21st Infantry Regiment, 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division, Fort Wainwright, Alaska. 

The circumstances of his death, at that time, were vague. Now it is revealed that his body was found in a guard tower with a gunshot wound to his head.

It has been speculated that his death may have been murder or suicide. 

Pray for Danny
Chen
Private Chen’s parents have stated that they don’t believe their son took his own life. They also stated that the Army informed them he had been racially taunted by fellow soldiers and had once been beaten by a group of six superior officers. 

God help us...Seemingly, you don't need the Taliban or insurgents or terrorists to kill you or to lead you to death...you can rely on your own comrades to do it instead.

Who would taunt or beat a 19 year old kid, however inept he was? 

Jesus, Mary and Joseph pray to the Father for us all. 

Pray for the teenagers who die in War. They are only kids.

Let us pray to God the Father, Jesus, all of the saints and all of the angels that Danny Chen is in heaven. Let us pray that he is at peace and is with God. Amen.
