We would like to give our deepest sympothy to the family and fiance of Sgt. Eric Pearrow.

My husband served under Eric at Ft Carson,CO and in Baghdad from Feb.22,2005- Thanksgiving Day,2005. He was with him on the mission they were on Thanksgiving Day. He is deeply missed by the troops of Maddog Company. He definately earned the respect he deserved. I met him the day before they left to go to Iraq and he was a very nice, funny guy. He loved his soldiers and did his best to protect them all. He will never be forgotten. A great leader he was.

With our deepest condolences,
"Brave Rifles!"
