Falls City, Texas
Mitchel T. Mutz's father said his son was intrigued with the work of a cavalry scout, adding that he repeatedly watched the movie "We Were Soldiers." "He said, 'That's what I want to do. I want to join the Army and do what needs to be done for the country,'" said his father, Bobby. Mutz, 23, of Falls City, Texas, died Nov. 15 in Baquba from a roadside bomb. He was on his second tour and was assigned to Fort Hood. Mutz decided to join the Army in February 2003 after studying for two years at Coastal Bend College. He graduated high school in 2001, where he played basketball and golf. During a memorial, Mutz was remembered for being an avid fan of country music and the Texas A&M Aggies. High school classmate Shannon Dubic said Mutz was "always really happy, and wanted to make you smile. He never had an enemy, that's for sure." He also is survived by his mother, Dixie. "Mitchel was a gift to us in so many ways. We have been lifted by his enthusiasm, cheered by his smile, warmed by his friendship," said the Rev. Kasmir Oleksy. Robin Jurgajtis, whose daughter was a friend of Mutz, remembered him as "a great guy" who "showed a lot of courage going back to Iraq."

In Memory of Mitchel ~ (Debra Estep)
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...
