Tragedy.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_van_Uhm
Peter van Uhm (Nijmegen, 15 July 1955) is the current commander-in-chief of the military of the Netherlands[1]. He succeeded Dick Berlijn on April 17 2008. Educated at the Koninklijke Militaire Academie, van Uhm is praised for his fair and effective style of management[2]. Van Uhm's son, lieutenant Dennis van Uhm, was killed in a roadside bombing in Uruzgan, the southern province of Afghanistan just one day after his father's assignment[3]. |
RIP. :nope:
I wonder if he was deliberately targeted b/c of his father. Shortly after the war started the Taliban tried to assassinate a high-ranking US commander with a strike on his helicopter. They may be vicious but they're not stupid... |
