CBS4 Boston -- Twenty-eight-year-old Gregroy Wright was craving experience, and the army gave him direction but he was killed in that service last Saturday, on the day his father didn't get the usual phone call from his only child.

"He just loved what he was doing....never took uniform off since joined national guard he wear it all the time," said Gregory's father, Conroy Wright.

Wright was a nurse's aide and a security guard. In the army he was a sergeant, leading two of his men when a city roadside bomb exploded in a north of Bagdad.

People spoke of his kind heart and generosity at the neighborhood barbershop where he often pitched in.

"If we were busy on a Saturday he'd come grab broom start sweeping the floor," said Doyen Dunkley.



Dunkley befriended Wright when he came to Boston from Jamaica 10 years ago. Now the toll of war has become all too real.

Deeply sadden for the lost of your husband and to his daughter. I just arrived at Fort Reily. Sitting having coffee with a close friend of my son. He be leaving for Iraq shortly. Obviously, coming to Fort Reily had a purpose. Didn't realize it be doubled fold. Gregory will never ever be forgotten, not today and all the tomorrow's. He gave the ulimate scarifice protecting our liberities, freedom and our way of live. He is by far an AMERICAN HERO that truly was so much more to those that knew and loved him. He was my son's brother, both bearing the name GREGORY! Please checkout www.vetssupportingvets.org and www.fallenheroesmmeorial.com many organizations to help you and your daughter. God Bless!
