Stryker Brigade News

I'm SOOOOO sorry about this. We're trying to find out if any of his family is part of our "on-line" family here. We ALL feel sick at heart when this happens. If anyone knows where we might send condolences please let us know.

My prayers are for the comfort of his family at this terrible time.

The loss of Adam to our family is beyond anything that I can express. Your thoughts and prayers as we bring him home are greatly appreciated. We are proud of his service to his country and of all of the heroes with the 1-24th. We will continue to keep everyone in our hearts and in our prayers. Our support will be never ending.

We thank you. Our deepest sympathies and thoughts are with you and your family.

As I get ready to lay my head down on my pillow to go to sleep, my eyes are filled with tears for this brave soldier and his family. I pray that our Lord will give Sgt. Plumondore's family His peace and comfort. We are truly a blessed people in the United States. God has given us brave and unselfish soldiers to defend and protect us. Sgt. Plumondore is now sitting on the lap of Jesus!

His Aunt is on out BB. Her name is AuntLisa. She posted it on 1-24 Stryker Brigade Soldiers.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family, friends and his fellow soldiers.

I am so very sorry for your loss - please know that your family is in my prayers.

Adam was a close friend of my husband and our family. Even the kids loved him. Our little daughter would often say that "Pwum" was her best friend. And since our guys have been deployed, after "I miss my daddy" she says "I miss my fwiend Pwum." We have a wall in our house that he helped us build and we have memories of him in our hearts that we will never let go of. It is so hard to picture a world with no Plum, that I still can't believe this is real. He was a good friend and a great man and he is missed by so many of us here at home and overseas. Our hearts go out to his dear sweet family. We love and miss you Adam.

My son Nathaniel was of the 1-24 out of Fort Lewis. He was killed Jan 15 of this year. My heart goes out to you for your lost. I know there is nothing that I can say to stop the pain, but I will beg God to give you the Strength to deal with the Great Loss. (Phil 4:13;John3:16; ps37:29)

Aunt Lisa, please extend our condolences to Adam's family from the stryker family. May God bring comfort and peace to his loving family. I am so sorry for your loss

My thoughts and prayers to Adam's family and friends... I am so very sorry.

To the friends, comrades and family of Adam, I extend my depest sympathies. I am so sorry for your loss. It truly breaks my heart. And to Vernon Swindell, how kind it is for you to be there for this family when you have suffered such a tragic loss as well. They are all in our thoughts and prayers. May their souls rest in peace.(My son came home from the 1st SBCT but I am still watching & praying for our other Stykers, we are all in this together!)

My deepest, deepest condolences go out to the family and friends of Sgt. Plumondore. I know that there are no words to take away any of the pain, but know that the world is wrapping it arms of love and grace and support around you. My husband was killed in Mosul 4 weeks ago. If you have any questions, concerns, comments, or just wanna talk with "someone who's been there," I am here - day or night. I will lift you up in my prayers.

My thought and prayers go out to the Plumondore family. I will keep you in my prayers. My husband is also a stryker and losing another stryker soldier is really hard. As for Mrs. Hoe you are one of a kind and may god blees you and your family too.

My heart is breaking for your loss. Your son was one of my son's men. He will be greatly missed by all his comrades and brothers but he is in a much safer place. He is in God's army now. I know he will be watching over his brothers. He was a very brave soldier. God Bless your family and friends.

We would like to thank everyone who has sent their love, prayers and condolences to us thru this site, the deuce four page or personal e-mail and calls. We cannot begin to imagine our lives without our own personal "Son-Shine". At this point in time, we are feeling pain that we never thought possible to bear. We will get through this because we want to world to get a good idea of the wonderful and special person our Adam was;and the type of people our soldiers are...They are not just numbers or bodies, they are the people we love very much and always want to be with us. The stryker family has been such an important part of our lives for these past couple of years and many of you we have had the honor of meeting in person. We know the pain the men in his group feel and the love they have for each other comes through loud and clear. We cannot convey to all of you how much you mean to us and how much you meant to Adam. He spoke highly of everyone and we know that there isn't anything you would not do for each other. Walter proved that when he let them all loose with a beer in one hand and a sledge hammer in the other to help him do some home "remodeling"! You are all going to forever be in our hearts, prayers and members of our family. Adam's journey home has begun and we will meet him in a couple of days. Not exactly the homecoming anyone plans...but the one we are dealing with as best we can. Thank you again for all you were to Adam in life; for all you did for him in his hour of need; for being his family far from home; and for thinking of us at what had to be the most difficult time in your lives. We are forever grateful to all of you. We will pray for your safe return home and know that Adam will always "have your six". Our hearts are 1/4 gone...but we will make sure that Adam has the honor he deserves and that no one forgets the rest of his "brothers" in country. Thank You seems so small, but it carries our hearts and Adam's which was bigger than the world itself.

My prayers and sympathy to the family and friends of this hero. God bless you all and to the two wives I commend you for sharing. God be with you all.

You are in my prayers. There are no words to express the feelings. Just know there are many of us here for you and your family.

Dear family of Sgt Plumondore,

I am having a hard time writing this because the tears continue to flow. Our son is a Stryker in the 1/24 as well. I know each time we hear of a death in Mosul we all pray that it is not our soldier. I am so sorry that it was your soldier this time. We all grieve with you, because they are all a part of us. May you continue to find comfort and strength in the Lord and from all of the Stryker families. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you.

There are no words one could say
Adam touched the lives of all who knew him GOOD OLD BOY as we call them. Your Ford on one side and your beer on the other. You will be missed dearly Adam. Your star will shine brighter now that you are looking down on all of us.

To Adam's family, I want to extend my deepest sympathies to you at the loss of your son. He is our hero and he gave his life for our country and we are humbled at his bravery. Please know that he will never be forgotten.

As you travel through this dark time, I hope that the glimmer of light that you see is but a part of the memory of the wonderful sunny days you spent with your beloved son. May those memories warm you and comfort you.

Adam will remain in my prayers, as will all of his fellow soldiers and heros.

Leonora

My prayers are with you, Plumodore Family, I am so grateful for your son's sacrifice, he made this world a better place. He will not be forgotten.

Fort Lewis Stryker Mom,
Star Yates

I served with Plum in the sniper section of deuce-four, and am saddened to hear of his passing. His energy, caring spirit, and amazing sense of humor will be missed. Adam had the unique ability to cheer you up when you thought that nothing could. I personally made a stupid decision that he could have easily ridiculed me for. Instead, Plum was supportive, understanding, and forgiving. He will never be forgotten.

I have not forgotten you..or "Sgt Plum"..my prayers are with you.
