Hey angel, every day i think, worry, and pray for you. I want so bad to hug you. I want to listen to your breath beside me while i sleep. Please don't get used to me being gone. I am sorry i'm not there with you right now. I know it doesn't seem like it all the time, but i try to be there when you need me. Usually i can make it happen but there was no way to get out of this. I guess this way at least i can give you and Toad and "Bean" food and a home. It may be awhile before we can make phone calls but i will continue to write as much as possible. I love you! Give Toad and "Bean"hugs and kisses. Count the stars...
Mais tarde, ainda durante o mês de Abril os Soldado Givens voltou a escrever à sua mulher grávida, filho e bébe por nascer:
In the next few days we will be moving again. We are heading into a real bad place, I guess. We have a bunch of want-to-be GI Joes who say they can't wait to kill someone. Personally i don't give a shit if we kill someone or never fire a shot. I don't want medals or to be a hero. I just want to come home and be a husband and daddy gain.
O soldado Givens, de 34 anos, morreu afogado no dia 1 de Maio de 2003, em Habbaniyah. "Bean" nasceu quatro semanas depois.
