I won't release the guys name, but he was my roommate in Tech school and just recently deployed with the 55th to Balad

It has been released to our squadron and they think it was a heart attack in his sleep, its SSgt Brian Hause, who worked Wheel and Tire and Cann dock here, he was also assigned to Phase at Luke and worked the line at Eielson, he was recently divorced but was still good friends with his ex, he leaves behind two kids.

Kind of defeats the purpose of withholding the info pending notification of next of kind.....


RIP

My most sincere condolences to all who knew him. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I've lost two co-workers in the time I've worked for my current employer - one to complications during heart surgery and another to suicide. It doesn't matter how they're gone, they're still gone.

Godspeed, Brian.
