Comments about ‘Soldier should be 'heralded,' family says’

Jordan's service is an inspiration to us all. The world is a better place because of him and others like him. We offer our thanks and best wishes to his parents, sister, and other loved ones.

I very much respect that Jordan was willing to put himself at risk by volunteering to serve his country, People like him are to be commended and their service respected.

That said, I hope in the future, our country is more careful before we commit to war, precisely because of what happened to Jordan, and others who have lost limbs, eyesight and other serious injuries.

Our love and gratitude is with you and your family for your fortitude and sacrifice. God Bless You.

My love and heartfelt apprecation go out to his family and friends. This same goes for all who whose love ones have paid the utlimate sacrifice that we might enjoy the freedoms and opportunities that we do. I appreciate the sacrifice, the hard work, the blood and sweat of every soilder... My heart aches to think of every child who cries in the arms of those who carry on at home or when they try to go to sleep at night. I've often reflect on what I can do to express my appreciation. I can live my life in such a way that honors the sacrifices and efforts of others who have blessed my life and made everything that I do and enjoy possible. Words alone are inadequate. Just the same, let me say THANK YOU!!!

Any U.S.VETERAN that died in service to his/her country will never be forgotten.FREEDOM IS NOT FREE.Our hearts go out too this wonderful family!!

Thanks Jordan.

Thank you, and thank you to all who have or do now serve. Those of us who have sons or daughters serving over there pray that we will never have to experience this, but when we do, we take comfort in knowing that our children serve selflessly and honorably, and that our Heavenly Father has seen their sacrifice.

I have a nephew who just returned from Iraq. I appreciate all who are willing to serve, and my deep appreciation is expressed at this time to the family of Jordan.

Thank you Jordan for your great sacrifice....now you other folks; what have you done for your country? I served did you?

For your Service Jordan. It is to bad that all of the sons of America do not live up to the standard you have set.

Having served in Iraq and after 17 years of service, I can appreciate the sacrifice that Jordan gave. Seeing my fellow Soldiers lost to any cause is a heart breaking story and I shed tears each time I hear of one yet, I can understand his reasons. I haven't thought twice about going the first time and I won't hesitate if called again. There is a greater cause that most just won't understand but Jordan did. I want to thank his family whose thoughts go towards service rather then personal gain even at the time of a most terrible tragedy. My thought and prayers are with you. God bless.

Jordan, thank you. To Jordan's family, thank you even more. It is an honor to serve with and lead young men and women in the US Army and they get their strength from their families.

God Bless

Thanks to Jordon and his family for the great sacrifice he made in Iraq. I am sure there are many free people in Iraq that are much happier now they have been freed from the cruel Dictator that caused so much heart ache among the people just because they didnt belong to his tribe. We who live here in America sometimes dont realize the suffering that goes on in the world where there is no freedom. Jordon you are our Hero.Thanks

People of my generation devoted their military service to the campaign in North and South VietNam, almost a lifetime ago. We were there because the world situation required it, not because we fully understood how it would benefit our country. Your son served in the same manner, with honor and dedication to his country. You can be proud of his service and sacrifice. God Bless you.

He was enforcing the 'army of occupation' status ordered by Bush the impaler. Killing Iraqis to 'assure freedom' in a country we invaded illegally.
He should never have been there and died for nothing.

Thankfully, Jordan understood something that "Mark" does not understand. Freedom is not free and there are causes greater than one's own tiny world that are worth dying for. God bless the Thibeault family for their sacrifice. Peace be with you all.

I was on Thibeault's first tour with him to Ramadi. HHC Plt. C Co. 1-6 IN. He was a really, really nice young guy. He liked to work hard. He had a sense of humor and did not take things too seriously. I am very sad to hear of his passing.

I believe I have pictures of him working in Ramadi if anyone is interested.

SGT Greg Kusel, I am interested in having copies of my son working in Ramadi. You can Google Jordan's name to find us.
