unlucky1 0 #1 January 24, 2007 I regret to inform you, but Jeffrey Bisson died a few days ago in Iraq. He was an avid skydiver up here in Alaska. He was stationed at Ft.Richardson. I know that he jumped quite a few places to include ELoy and I believe Perris? BSBD, Johnny Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustChuteMeNow 0 #4 January 24, 2007 I understand that he and at least two other soldiers died when a roadside bomb exploded near his Humvee. I didn't know Jeff but I can respect the commitment that he made to the Army and the nation. Unfortunately, Jeff paid the ultimate price during this call of duty.

squarecanopy 0 #15 January 25, 2007 Even though I don't know him, I am very sad for the Bisson family and Jeffrey Bisson's skydiving family. My gratitude for his sacrifice is not easy to put into words. As the father of two Marines (who are also skydivers), I pray that nobody ever has to post something similar about either of them. Blue Skies, Jeffrey Bisson...Thank you, God Bless you. Jump easy, fly free... Just burning a hole in the sky..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bloody_trauma 2 #25 January 26, 2007 losing a soldier is never easy.... as a matter of fact it is one of the most painful thing a family has to go through... i can say from experience having lost my father and mother to disease that these soldier are more than friends and more than family, we share a bond that is unrivaled by any other, we have been in situations and places that can never really be explained to a civilian without havung gone there and experienced it yourself, i did not know this soldier but i am crying for him just the same, he was a brave young man for doing what he did selflessly and with pride he did it. freedom has a flaovor that the protected will never know. for all of you that say that we are wrong for doing the thign that we do we dont do them for us, we do it because our county demands it, and for nothing more, you will be honored and missed by americans, sodiers fmaily and skydivers alike...
