In Loving and Blessed Memory . . . .

Soldiers Bible Ministry, its friends, partners, and associates, offer their prayers for the families of the victims of the brutal attack at Ft. Hood.

While not included in the official tally of those who died, this child was lost due to this barbaric act.  We at Soldiers Bible Ministry believe that life starts at conception and while this may not be the actual image of her child, we hope it serves as a reminder that her child died with her and is one of the casualties of this attack, bringing the real total to 14 killed.

Sgt. Kimberly Munley - Injured but in stable condition

Munley is a 34-year-old mother of two and a civilian Police Officer employed by the Army.  When Maj. Nidal Hasan launched his bloody rampage at the Army base, Munley tracked him down outside a pre-deployment facility and fired on him striking him twice in the upper Torso.  Munley was hit in both legs and her wrist during the gun battle but stayed on her feet and kept firing at the charging gunman and subsequently stopped his rampage possibly saving many lives.

Sergeant Munley, Thank You for your service to this nation!  You are in our thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery as well as your family and kiddos.  May God richly bless all of you!

After being shot above the knee, he pretended to be dead until the shooter moved away.
