I would like to say how sorry I am for the loss of Brett. My son was in Iraq for a year, and I thank God everday that he came home alive. Brett is a hero and our town all came together to salute the fallen soldier.

We offer our heartfelt sympathy to the family and friends of PFC. Wood, and we honor his distinguished service to the cause of freedom and liberty. Sadly, America has lost one of its finest heroes, the U.S. has lost a friend and protector, and a family has lost an example of character and courage, which they will love and respect forever. Today, because of the sacrifice PFC. Wood has made, the house of freedom is stronger, sturdier, and more secure.
To the family and friends, of PFC. Wood, I would like you to know that a lot of people pray for you, and my hope is that their prayers will give you the strength necessary to carry on. Just as you were always with him when he was deployed overseas, know that he will always be with you wherever you may be. In the days to follow, may you be strengthened by the fact that PFC. Wood was a man distinguished by exceptional courage and will always be admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. You, your family and your sacrifice will never be forgotten.
"Our debt to the heroic men and valiant women in the service of our country can never be repaid, they have earned our undying gratitude. America will never, ever forget their sacrifices."
PFC. Wood the flag of the United States of America has your blood sewn into the fabric; it shall wave forever in your honor.
Freedom requires sacrifice the protected will never know.

I know there are no words to say at this time, except how sorry that I am. I truly feel your loss and pain. My thoughts and prayers are with you always. Brett will never be forgotten.
For you every single soldier
Those who served so honorable
Your life was forever altered
While I’m home safe and free
I stand with grateful admiration
I stand respectful and so proud
I know I’m only a civilian
And I don’t even know if it’s allowed
But I salute you; allow me the honor
to salute you with permission let me say
Even though I hold no rank know that from my heart
My humble gratitude comes from the deepest part.
I salute you.
For those missing in action;
for those who didn’t make it home.
I know you’re in God’s presence you are not alone.
For every neatly folded flag;
for every shattered family
I will do the only thing I know to dignify your memory.
I salute you, allow me the honor
to salute you with permission let me say
even though I hold no rank know that from my heart
my humble gratitude comes from the deepest part.
I salute you.
I Salute You.

Brett was just about the nicest guy you could ever meet. And though I didn't know Brett as well as I would have liked to, I went to school with him and I know that if I were to see him today he would talk to me, or anyone else he went to school with if he recognized them. Whether he was close friends with them or not, that is just the nice kind of guy he was. I feel so honored to have known him and I will continue praying for his close friends and family during this difficult time. Brett, you are loved and missed by so many. <3
