Jens, I miss you and I'm sorry I couldn't be there to send you off. Not a day goes by where I don't miss you or your red neon that took us places. I remember going to the movies and playing cards or just the many times we just hung out. I enjoyed all the time we spent together. You motivated me to be my best and to continue my service. I miss you more each day and hope to see you again.Respectfully,Emily Berger

Jen's, not a day goes by that we don't think about you. Samantha has so many of your traits it's uncanny! We'll be going soon back to Georgia to visit everyone and of course to see you. We love you and miss you but I guess you already knew that.
God help us she's going to be driving soon. Please watch over her on her journeys Jen's.
We hope to at least talk with Astrid someday. Manni would love to talk with her little sister.

Always think about this dude! Man we were in elementary together and he was destined to be in the military! While we would always draw and color cartoon characters etc Jens always would draw military tanks and soldiers and helicopters dropping bombs on the enemy! Didn't find out he passed until years later! Ms Wallace we attended McDonogh 39 together! Praying for you guys!

I was the first to reach SSG Schelbert after he was wounded. I still think about him to this day, along with the other great Soldiers we lost during that same event. After sustaining such a horrific injury, he was still holding on to his lunch plate. I remember loading him into the FLA and hoping for the best. Our battalion was devastated to learn that he did not survive. He will never be forgotten.

Nine years,... they seem like they have passed so quickly. Alot has changed in my life since then, but alot of the man I have become is due to the lessons you taught me as a new soldier in the Army. I wish you were still here brother, but I know one day we will meet again upon the Fiddlers Green.

To Anna Wallace, Staff Sergeant Jens Schelbert's mother:
I wanted to let you know that I ran in memory of your son this past Saturday at the Soldier's Marathon held at Ft Benning. I have a good friend, Charles Cannon, who served with your son. I emailed Chas, who is currently working in Washington, DC, to ask him who he would recommend that I honor as a fallen soldier in the marathon. He said there were several soldiers that were lost during his 2nd tour to Iraq. He said Jens was the hardest because he was so well liked. He told me Jens was one of his "security guards" during his 2nd tour to Iraq when he would meet with the mayor and city councils. He said he was with your son daily. Chas was the first person to get to him after the attack. He told me there is a little monument to him outside of his old battalion headquarters on Fort Benning. I began training with my good friend in July. We had a wonderful time training and the marathon on Saturday was truly a highlight. I thought of your son several times during the race when I wanted to stop. I thought about how he served our country and gave his life for our freedom. Jens died on my first son's birthday. Please know it was an honor to run with his name on my shirt. I will always remember that day and your son. God bless you and your family.

In Memory of Jens Eduard ~ (Debra Estep)
October 2, 2008
Holding you all in my thoughts and prayers.
The Wind on The Downs
“I like to think of you as brown and tall,
As strong and living as you used to be,
In khaki tunic, Sam Brown belt and all,
And standing there and laughing down at me.
Because they tell me, dear, that you are dead,
Because I can no longer see your face,
You have not died, it is not true, instead
You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe;
I hear you laughing as you used to do,
Yet loving all the things I think of you;
And knowing you are happy, should I grieve?
You follow and are watchful where I go.”
(Written by Marian Allen during World War l )
Two lines that I wish you to keep near your heart…….
“You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe”
I did not know Jens, but I am remembering
his service. He is my hero. !

The Other Side
i'm over on the other side
where life and death softly divide.
left my skin and bones behind
now i'm over on the other side.
can you feel me there with you?
my breath is gone but i'm not through.
loved you then and i still do
from over on the other side.
i can fly. really fly.
below the earth ... all through the sky.
tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side.
it's good here on the other side.
the sweetest songs...the bluest skies.
thank you for the tears you cried
but it's good here on the other side.
i can fly. really fly. below the earth...all through the sky.
tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side
the world is smaller than a needle's eye.
where life and death softly divide.
when you leave your skin and bones behind
i'll be waiting on the other side.
i can fly. really fly. below the earth ... all through the sky.
go tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side.

Chaplain Dan Gates, Georgia Society SAR
September 4, 2007
I have just learned of the death of Staff Sergeant Jens. E. Schelbert. As the State Chaplain of the Georgia Sons Of The American Revolution and speaking for our President, Charlie A. Newcomer, III and more than 1,400 SAR members around the State of Georgia, may I most humbly express the condolences of a grateful Society. Wrapped in the integrity of service to our nation and the inestimable values of duty, honor and country, this American hero stood on a wall of freedom for us all. His life and his love of country epitomized every attribute of patriotism the Sons Of The American Revolution hold dear. And, as Americans, we could never repay the debt we owe him ..!! Nor the debt we owe you… his family!!!
August 19, 2007
There is nothing that I can say or do to take away the pain or bring you peace in your time of sorrow, but I will offer you and your family my heart felt condolences. I also offer you my prayers that in time the pain will easy and the memories of your HERO will carry you through each day and night. I want to thank your HERO, for his/her selfless act of becoming a member of the armed forces, his/her willingness to defend the United States of America, all that we hold sacred and for the sacrifice that will forever be etched in the memories of all those who knew him/her. Though tears can never bring him/her back, we hope that our tears express our gratitude for the sacrifice that he/she made and our sorrow at his/her passing. I believe for every fallen HERO there is a star shining brightly up above to remind us of the precious gift we were given.
Your mission on earth is complete and you are now a member of GOD’s Heavenly armed forces. Stand down brave warrior and take your rightful place in Heaven with all the HEROES who have passed before.
I made a special promise to LE RON A. WILSON, a dear family friend who joined the Army with three other friends, one of whom is my son (Le Ron was killed in action on 07/06/07 at the age of 18) on the day he was laid to rest as I touched his coffin, that I would never forget him nor would I forget those that gave their lives for our country before him, with him and after him and so when I came across www.legacy.com, I thought what a great way to keep my promise to Le Ron, so I will continue to leave tributes in each guest book until the day there is no longer the need to leave these tributes to a FALLEN HERO.
REST IN PEACE, HERO, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!

Just a note...to let you know I was thinking about you today.
October 22, 2006
To the Family of Staff Sgt. Jens E. Schelbert:
Your son's name, along with our sons, is forever together on a Memorial standing at Fort Indiantown Gap, Annville, PA. Their dogtags hang together forever moving with the wind creating a subtle sound, like the quiet whispers of the Fallen as they continue to speak to us. Attending this Memorial Dedication and hearing your child's name being read along with ours, has prompted me to sign this soldier's guestbook.
If your child can stand in battle to ensure my freedom, then I will stand in grief with his family to honor him. For every fallen HERO there is a bright star that shines in the evening sky to remind us of the cherished gift we were given – even if for too short a time.
My heart breaks again as I sign yet another guest book of another courageous young soldier who gave their life so selflessly. I wish I never found myself in a position to have to sign another guestbook for the rest of my life, but I promised Brent that neither he nor any like him would be forgotten and so I will continue until the day there is no longer the need.
We lost our son SFC Brent A. Adams on 12/1/05 as well and it seems like yesterday. I wish so badly there were things I could say to you right now to make the pain you are feeling go away, but I know first hand there simply are no words that will bring you the comfort and peace your heart aches for right now. Just know that you are not alone. My heart, thoughts, and prayers are with you all as you go through this tragedy moment by moment and as you mourn this loss.
We don't know each other, will probably never meet, but will forever be united in the loss of our Heroes. We have, unfortunately joined a group none of us wanted to join, an ever-growing group of families in this situation. May God grant you peace and strength to get through this and be able once again to smile at a memory rather than have only the tears that flow so easily now. To be so proud of your loved one and so saddened at the same time is a mix of emotions very difficult to deal with as our hearts both burst with pride and pain together.
I am sorry that I never knew your soldier personally. While they can never be replaced, neither will they ever be forgotten . You must trust that sometime, someday the loving memories you have will help to sustain you and help you go on. This courageous soldier will forever be your Angel watching over you all for the rest of your lives. It's what brings me some measure of peace and comfort and I hope it will you as well.
To his family and friends in pain, I offer this comfort: When you find yourself in that dark sorrowful place, think not only of how you will miss him, but instead recall the years, days, hours and minutes gifted to you by his presence. The one thing that cannot be taken from you is your wonderful memories that now will mean more than ever.
If you ever want to talk, I'm only an e:mail away and would love for you to tell me more about your Hero.
God Bless this soldier and family who gave all and God Bless legacy.com for setting up this site where families can so quickly share their condolences and prayers with others like themselves.

Sometimes in the military..you lose track of people...catch up with them 6 months out a year out. I came across letters from Jens last night in a box...letters from his first deployment in 2003. I had not spoken to Jens in a little over a year. I am very very very saddened by this loss. He was a great guy who would give anyone any help they needed. He was proud of his American Citizenship and he was proud to be a tanker...And I am sorry that he is gone.

I was deeply saddened to learn of Sgt. Schelbert's passing. He was a fine man and a dedicated soldier.
I had the chance to spend quite a bit of time with him during the Iraq invasion in 2003. As such, I have many fond memories of Sgt. Schelbert. When he saw how much I enjoyed drinking the Tabasco sauce from MREs, he made sure I had a steady supply, often tossing them to me from his gunner position on Commander Sanderson's Abrams.
But mostly I'll remember his affable ways and gentle wit matched only by his friend-winning smile. He will be sorely missed.
I extend my sincere condolences to his family.

Psalm 23
1
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
2
He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters,
3
He restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
5
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
6
Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
This is a verse that I have found to be comforting to me during my husbands death. Remember that when it seems that no one else is round, God is still there with you! And he will be your rock!
My daughter,McKaLyne, and I send our heartfelt sympathy for your loss! God Bless this warrior, God Bless those whom serve freedom's cause! They are our true HERO's!!!!

Sometimes the greatest of heros raise up from nowhere to take their place amoung our nations finest citizens. SSG Schelbert was one of the finest tankers you will ever find. His service to this country, the US Army and his fellow soldiers was nothing short of profound. I am a better person for having had the pleasure of serving along side of him. May God's grace now be with his family and comfort them during this trying time.

The soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass,
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, you soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
The soldier squared his shoulders and
said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain't,
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep...
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here,
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod,
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you soldier,
You've borne your burdens well,
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
