Family members on Wednesday remembered a 26-year-old Army reservist from Terrell as a competitive but good-natured person who enjoyed soccer and cared deeply for his fellow soldiers.

Sgt. Sean B. Berry died Monday from non-combat related injuries in Taqaddum, Iraq, the Pentagon said. An investigation was under way, said his father, John Berry.

John Berry said an e-mail he received Monday, the same day he got word of the death, showed just how much his son cared for others.

"It said he had volunteered to extend his time to next summer cause there was some unit up north that was really taking it hard," John Berry said. "The bottom line is for Brady (Sean's middle name), what he was in there for was for the other guys."

During his most recent visit home in July, John Berry recalled that his son was "really fidgety and nervous because he was worried about what would happen to his guys."

As a child, Berry enjoyed sports, particularly soccer.

His love of the game carried over into his job as a sniper in Iraq, where he had been deployed since January with the Army National Guard's 2nd Battalion, 112th Armor Regiment, 56th Brigade Combat Team out of Fort Worth, Texas.

While stationed in Iraq, he arranged to have 1,000 soccer balls shipped from Texas to Iraqi children, his father said.

"He really liked kids a lot and he really liked helping," John Berry said.

Sean Berry graduated from Terrell High School in 1998, after which he planned to study sports medicine at Dallas Baptist University.

He decided to enlist less than a year into his studies.

"I was in it for 10 years he told me because I came home in a uniform all the time, he wanted to do that, too," the elder Berry said.

Berry is survived by his father, his mother, Jenny, and a younger brother, Blake. Funeral arrangements were pending.

(From his alternate):

We are getting closer to coming home. We should be flying from here back to Kuwait in about 2 months and from there back to the USA. We are ready. That has been one long 'vacation.'
I have included a group picture of the guys from our platoon while on a mission. I have made my own web page www.boxcar7.com which has many more pictures on it.
Please note that no packages should be sent after the first of November because of our return date. Thank you so much for your service. It is really nice to have groups who care and put time into supporting us while we are here.
Thanks and God Bless,

I first apologize for taking so long to update. I have been gone for the last 2 to 3 weeks on leave and totally forgot about updating. As far as the section goes the guys are good. Apparently they got to go to Baghdad while I was on leave so I missed out on that trip. They guys have been doing a good job and found several roadside bombs before they went off. We have started to work pretty closely with some marine dog-handlers. Although I still live with HQ section I have been transfered to Bravo section as the new squad leader. They actually made my old driver my gunner in my new vehicle and now I have a new driver that came from another base. As far as things we need: letters for moral, tuna fish, relish, gatorade mix, copenhagen long cut, and if somebody has an old microwave they wouldnt mind sending we would greatly appreciate it. On behalf of the guys thank you to all of you thank you all so very much.

My name is Sgt Berry and i am representing my section of soldiers who are from the state of Texas. At this point and time we have no microwave but we do have a laundry service. We live in tents for now, but we keep getting told we will be in shacks here before too long. Our elctric outlets are 220 so we have power strips and cords running everywhere. most of the guys in my section are single and old enough that there parents arent sending them packages. So a friend told me about this and i figured I could help my guys out. Things they would like are as follows: potted meats, krackers, any chips ahoy product, gatorade powder, tuna fish, trail mix, pens, and any letters of encouagement. Thank you somuch for your help and support.

IMPORTANT! DO NOT PRINT THIS PAGE!!!

Why? Because this list changes all the time due to unit movements, soldier transfers, or even soldier casualties.
It is also illegal. ALL content on this site is copyright Any Soldier Inc.
DO NOT send any letter or package to a soldier's address unless you check this web site the same day you mail your packages.
Please do not burden the soldiers or the APO/FPO by sending things when the soldiers are gone. If a soldier is not listed here anymore then that soldier's address is expired. Check here often!

Note that some of the units do not have ranks shown on their addresses.
This is done at the unit's request, but ALL of our contacts ARE Servicemembers.

Be sure to change the "ATTN" line to "ATTN: Any Female Soldier if your package is for a female!

DO NOT use this program if you expect or require a reply!
DO NOT expect, or require, a reply from a Soldier!
A supporter said it perfectly, "I mean, these guys and gals have other things on their minds, y’know? Like...oh, STAYING ALIVE?"

(NOTE *): Effective 1 May 2006 this web site added a major layer of security to our contacts' information. This change is necessary to protect our troops and ensure that Any Soldier will continue to operate.
The ONLY changes are that the addresses of our contacts are now hidden and the number of addresses you can get are limited. You may obtain addresses simply by clicking on the link provided and correctly filling out the form, the address will then be emailed to you immediately.

(NOTE **): The number shown is how many times a form was submitted requesting this address. This does NOT necessarily mean that this contact will be helped by that many folks. Rule of thumb is that anything 5 requests or less may in fact be no support at all. No way to tell exactly unless the contact lets you know in his/her update how much support they are getting.

(Note 1.): Note that postage to APO AE and FPO AE (E = Europe) is only to NY where the connection to the APO/FPO (APO = Army Post Office)(FPO = Fleet Post Office) is, or to San Francisco for APO AP and FPO AP (P = Pacific), so you don't pay postage all the way to Iraq/Afghanistan. You might consider picking contacts closer to your mailing area to help cut the cost of mailing. If you live on the East Coast, pick "AE", West Coast, pick "AP", Midwest, well...uh, Thank You for your Support! ;)

New with us (December 2005) you might notice "APO AA" and "FPO AA". This is for units in the Caribbean/South America. Normally. However, due to the nature of some units they may be in Iraq but have an address showing "FPO AA". Mail addresses to "AA" goes out of Miami, Florida.

(Note 2.): Why are military addresses weird? There isn't a street address or city. What gives? Correct, just about everything about the military is weird to civilians. Military units are very mobile, they move around a lot, often they even become part of another unit. The APO (Army Post Office) and FPO (Fleet Post Office) assign APO and FPO numbers as needed, they are NOT static. An APO/FPO number may be for a large unit, or a location. An APO/FPO number for Baghdad today may be for Frankfurt tomorrow.

(Note 3.): The "Expect to not mail past" date is only an approximate and is one of the least reliable things on this web site. It is because of this that you must check often before you send anything to this unit. There are a few reasons this date is not reliable, to include: it IS the Military, we ARE dealing with the APO/FPO/DPO. The only thing that does not change in the military is that things will change. PLEASE NOTE that a Contact is dropped off our active list 30 days PRIOR to their date leaving to help avoid mail bouncing.

(Note 4.): (Removed for OPSEC reasons)

(Note 5.): The lines, "Contact with approx number of Soldiers:" and "Approx how may Female Soldiers:" have NOTHING to do with unit strength. They are approximately how many other Troops the Contacts believe they can get packages to. This helps you understand that you should not send 100 packages to someone who only deals with 10 Troops.
Don't forget that if your package is for a female Soldier, be sure to change "ATTN: Any Soldier®" to "ATTN: Any Female Soldier".

( Note 6.): This is simply where the unit this contact is from. This is NOT a true picture of the folks in the unit as most all units are made up of folks from all over the United States.) A "Composite Unit" is one made up of other units and is usually temporary for a particular mission.

( Note 7.): Updated APO/FPO/DPO mailing restrictions> courtesy of Oconus.com (gone now) (Note: About Restriction "U2": "U2 - Limited to First Class Letters", Box "R" is for retired personnel that live overseas and are still authorized an APO/FPO box. Their address will be something like Box 3345R. Doubt you will see anything like that in Afghanistan or Iraq or ...)(Please Note: Sometime in August 2013, Oconus.com changed the code on their page and our form doesn't work with them anymore, so a link to their page is the best we can do, sorry.)
