Another Oklahoma Hero
The sixty-fifth Oklahoman has died in Iraq. Staff Sergeant Chris Hake was 26 years old. He grew up in Enid; he was married to a Stillwater girl and had a little boy named Gage and his family still lives in Enid. He was on his second deployment to Iraq, and according to his father, he loved what he was doing. He was loyal, dedicated and compassionate and all the things a good soldier is.He was killed along with three other soldiers (a fifth was wounded) on Easter Sunday when a roadside bomb hit his vehicle in southern Baghdad.
From one Army parent to another, my prayers are with you, with your daughter-in-law and your grandson. And God bless Staff Sergeant Hake for his sacrifice.
"All gave some. Some gave all."
