Re: The Iraq Page, RIP soldiers
 
Stephen Robert Wright
Quote:
MOD -- It is with deep regret that the Ministry of Defence must confirm the death of Gunner Stephen Robert Wright in Iraq on Monday 4 September 2006.
Gunner Wright, 20, from 58 Battery, 12 Regiment Royal Artillery, died as a result of injuries sustained from a roadside bomb at approximately 1300hrs local time near the town of Ad Dayr, north of Basra City. He was on a routine patrol in support of a Danish reconstruction team when the incident occurred.
The explosion hit his vehicle patrol as it was returning to base following a routine task training the Iraqi Police. Very sadly the incident killed two soldiers from the Battery, including Gunner Wright.

Rest in Peace Stephen.
