Did you know hime enough to make these recent allegations. The Dave I knew had many secrets and to tell you the truth he was a changed man since he was stationed closer to home. He was not living with his wife he had divorced her in March and remarried her several weeks before his shooting. He was living with some gringa. Also, have you looked at the recent diagram of the slayings? Well, if Dave was on the second floor of the club then why would the gunmen go up the stairs to shoot him "once" in the head. This does not make sense. I think their is more to the story and he wasn't as innocent as everybody thinks. He may have been a good soldier but something changed him and it lies across the border in Mexico where drugs, and prostitution are a way of life and easy money.

Whoever the hell you are. GO TO hell. Dave Booher was a damn hero. Even after shit hit the fan, Dave reacted on how he was raised and went to help the others that were wounded to save himself. Self sacraficing!!! Rest in peace my friend

How was it sad? No sadder than the other deaths that take place in Juarez on a daily basis. Anyone with half a brain knows that the places of prostitution are connected with the crime rings that rule over Juarez.

He was no hero, he was after some cheap sex from some Mexican pootah.

I'm not sure how people who did not know David can judge himm or his actions. And whoever was quoted in this article did not know him very well at all. He lived with his girlfriend (he said the love of his life) and her daughter in Alamo. He was bringing his son out next summer to be with them. He was looking forward to having a happy family finally that included his mother and family and friends in Juarez. He wasn't looking for anything in Juarez....that was his home. He went to visit his family and friends before he deployed. As far as any "remarriage" everyone knows that the so called wife forged everything. He loved his girlfriend very much. For everyone at Holloman and his other true friends he made....we know he was a true hero. And he will be dearly missed by us all. My thoughts and prayers go out to Debbie and his family and friends. We all love you Boo!!
