AMARILLO, TEXAS -- The community of Dalhart is mourning the loss of a fallen hero. Sgt. David Davis lost his life while serving his country in Afghanistan.
Davis had served two prior tours in Iraq and was currently serving a one year tour in Afghanistan.
We spoke to several folks in Dalhart who remember Davis as a tall, humorous, and kind individual. A former employer and friend had conversations with Davis in between tours. This is what he had to say about his courage and willingness to sacrifice for his country, "I never saw any worry in his eyes, I never saw any hesitation in his voice, I think he knew what was involved, but he wasn't afraid of what was involved. If that was the sacrifice that he was asked to make then he would do it without hesitation," said Andy Hulett, a friend and former employer.
As of now there have been no confirmed funeral plans or memorial services planned.
On behalf of all of us here at Pronews Seven we want to thank the Davis family for their sacrifice, and our thoughts and prayers go out to all of those who were close to Sgt. David Davis.
