It's been confirmed: SSG Keith "Matt" Maupin's remains have been positively id'd through DNA evidence.
He's really gone. It's something I've always "known", but somehow, getting that confirmation tonight is just numbing.
I keep finding myself saying "He's really gone", and breaking out in tears again. His parents NEVER gave up believing that he would be found, alive, and brought home. They were partially right- he was found, and will be brought home.. but not alive.
He's really, truly, beyond doubt... gone. ~AFSister
Update: No point in setting a place down at Fiddler's Green, they already know, and have for some time. They've just been waiting for us to catch up.
So, let's catch up -
Now is the time at Castle Argghhh! when we dance: In Memoriam, for Staff Sergeant Keith "Matt" Maupin.
