MEET THE SOLDIER AND HIS FAMILY.

PFC Herrgott is the 1st Brigade soldier killed on Thursday.
He joined the service in January 2002 because "he wanted to earn money for college so he could become a police officer," said Beth Herrgott, 29, one of his two sisters, speaking at the family home Friday. "He thought the military would give him some good discipline and a good life."

The Minnesota soldier last spoke to his parents on Wednesday, said his other sister, Amy, 22. She said his parents told him to "be safe and stay inside the Bradley."
