Letter from Tommy's Mom

So if you are looking at this site you can see from the “few” pictures I sent that I am so very proud of Tommy.

Just know who ever is missing him, had admiration for him, love for him and respect for him just multiply your feelings by infinity and those feelings are mine.

I feel like I know most of Tommy’s friends, those he led and those that led him. Because of he and Jennifer’s stories I have lived vicariously with all of you.

I appreciate all of you being his friend, civilians and military. I will keep all of you in my prayers….especially his Soldiers he had to leave behind in Afghanistan in someone else’s care.

Please know, all of you, Tommy had true compassion for all whom he served with from Privates to Generals.

The Army was Tommy’s life and I am so very proud of it.

Website Description

MAJ Thomas Gordon Bostick, Jr. was killed in action on 27 July 2007. MAJ Bostick was commanding his RSTA Troop in a northeast area in Afghanistan where his unit was attacked and he was killed. MAJ Bostick was the Commander of B-Troop, 1-91 CAV in the 173d Airborne Brigade deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. This was Tom’s fourth deployment to Afghanistan and he had also deployed to combat in Iraq and in Panama during Just Cause. Tom served for over 18 years in the United States Army as an enlisted Soldier, an NCO and an Officer. All his assignments surrounded him with troops of Airborne and Ranger lineage. Tom was the epitome of the quiet professional as well as a proven warrior during 6 x combat deployments. Most importantly, Tom was a loving husband and father who was deeply trusted and endeared by all who knew him. This is intended to be a small tribute and celebration of Tom’s wonderful life on this earth. It is also meant to be a gathering area for the many who loved him to share pictures, stories and post reflections of “life with Tom Bostick”.
