I don't know Richard Eaton that well, but we do have a 'nodding' acquaintance. He's the Public Affairs Director/'spokesman' here at the University of New Haven.

A couple of days ago, his son Richard, Jr., an active duty soldier in the U.S. Army, died in Iraq of a pulmonary edema. Possibly falling victim to the mysterious 'pneumonia' that has striken a number of U.S. troops over the past month or so.

I'm not going to make any political statement here, but just want to express my condolences to his family.
