U.S. Army medic Carletta Davis died in Iraq on Nov. 5. Her husband Thomas Davis is a recent graduate of the University of Washington's MEDEX PA program.

The Los Angeles Times published an article about Davis's family on Christmas.

OSWEGO, N.Y. -- The three young sons of Staff Sgt. Carletta Davis did not get to say goodbye to her before she shipped off to Iraq in September. Two months later, Carletta was killed by a roadside bomb as her convoy returned from a mission near Kirkuk on Nov. 5.

"Those boys didn't get that last hug and kiss, and that's what they'll crave the rest of their lives," said Lavada Napier, Carletta's mother.
