3 Fort Lewis soldiers die in February

By MIKE BARBER
P-I REPORTER

Twice last month a pair of grim but compassionate military officers arrived at the front doors of the families of Fort Lewis soldiers serving in Iraq, filling them with dread.

Courtney Runyan of Puyallup at first didn't want to get out of bed when she heard the noise at her door around 6:30 a.m. Feb. 17, a Sunday.

When she saw the two men outside her door, she knew.

"I just wanted to slam the door in their face and say, 'It's not mine, it must be somebody else's,' " Runyan, 24, told the York (Pa.) Dispatch.

Her husband, Spc. Luke Runyan, 21, along with Spc. Chad D. Groepper, also 21, both soldiers with Fort Lewis' 4th Stryker Brigade, had been killed Feb. 17 in an ambush in Dyala Province, Iraq.
