SrA King - 320 STS - forward deployed to OEF was “wounded in action” Sunday when the vehicle he was riding in was struck by an IED. Bottom line -- he’ll be OK. We feel very fortunate it wasn't worse for KG, but sadly, SOF suffered 3x casualties as a result of the blast.
Most significant injury: "mild TBI" with "retrograde amnesia," but doc expects a full recovery in a few weeks. He will likely be released from the hospital w/I the next day or two and will remain forward in garrison w/ his ST teammates for 1-2 weeks while he undergoes periodic (every 48 hours) memory testing and combat stress evals.
Please keep him and our lost SF brothers in your thoughts and prayers.
Please forward this on to as many other ST members as you can. Thanks.

BRADLEY P. THOMPSON, Col, USAF
Commander, 720 STG
