Megan Touma Tribute

Megan was an awesome person to work with! I will never forget out JEC Trips that we took! Megan you were a crazy person! My prays are with your family and friends! I miss you!

I didn't know Megan, but I was an Army Soldier from 1978-1984 and I still have a strong sense of Family from the Army.
I Mourn Her as I would any Family or Friend. She was Beautiful and would have been an Outstanding Mother.
I Regret never having known Her and Wish that I could have, but I Hope and Pray that Megan and Her Baby are in a Better Place and have Better Lives.
I will not foget Her, Her Baby, Maria Lauterbach and Her Baby or Lt. Holley Winunc.
God Bless Them All.

we lived two doors down from her when my husband and I were stationed in Fort Drum, NY she was such a wonderful person we hung out a few times I never saw her in a bad mood she was always smiling... I just cant believe something like this could happen to such a wonderful woman... When my husband told me about this when it 1st happened I was just in so much shock I still am.... Megan you will be miss very much...

I was in Germany with Touma and had hung out with her a few times and BBQ'd with her a few times also and from what I knew of her, she was a sweet, funny, and energetic person that was so excited to have that baby.... I remember the night before we left Germany to come to Iraq, she came in my room to say her good byes to all the guys and myself because she was goin back to the states and told us all to be careful... I wish I could of had more time to get to know her a little better but I know that the time I did spend with her was fun... She was a great person and I know she will be greatly missed... RIP Megan Touma!

I am a Soldier stationed in Fort Bragg, N.C. This is a very sad thing that has happened to this young girl. I know the police will find the killer and he will be punished. I would like everyone not to forget what the Officer in Charge of the 19th replacement failed to do!! That's not running an organized company. She should be FIRED and yes Officers can be FIRED... This story is just another example of how the U.S. Military is soo unorganized. We have to start holding Officers and NonCommissioned Officers accountable. I have been in the Army for more than a year now and all I have seen is the hire ranking Soldier's be unorganized theirselves or just saying they can't do anything about it. This is crazy. GOD BLESS SPC Touma

This news shocked me. I saw Megan's picture in the news and swore I new her. It's then that I realized that this person was the girl I knew as PVT Heine in Basic Training. I finished many runs next to Megan and will never forget her enduring spirit and passion for both running and life. It's such a tragedy and I will forever miss one of my battle buddies being here on earth. My thoughts and prayers are with Megan's family and I hope closure is soon brought.
