How can so many tragedies happen to one family?

It’s unbelievable, it’s tragic and it’s heartbreaking…

Two children of a Fort Bliss soldier flown back from Iraq with combat injuries are dead and a third is on life support after a car accident on the way to visit their father in the hospital, Army officials said.

Army Spc. John Austin Johnson was waiting for his wife and three kids to visit him at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio on Oct. 13 when another soldier told him his family’s car had rolled over four times on Interstate 10 about 12 miles east of Ozona on the gusty West Texas plains.

“He said, ‘Two of my children are dead?’ ” Army Sgt. 1st Class Eugene Schmidt told the Dallas Morning News. “And we started crying.”
