My name is SSG Chris Bushaw and I called in set up the LZ and guided in the helocopter that took SGT Baum from the field of battle. A great man, a good friend, and we will all miss him.

We love you Ryan

RIP SGT Baum.

After serving in Iraq, the 3/509th received a Valorous Unit Award for extraordinary heroism in action. This past month, they began redeploying to Afghanistan. Our thoughts are with them.
