Scott is an inspiration. After seeing him on TV and reading about him, he seemed like Superman, more than the average man and almost invulnerable. I guess that's why his death affected me so much. My prayers are with him and his family.

Knowing that Scott had a personal relationship with our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus and he served our country with such honor shows me, that he is a hero in my eyes. A true American patriot knowing what it takes to keep us free. Thank you Scott.

To Scott and his family: I met Scott a number of years ago when I was a member of the Huntington Beach Fire Department. Scott quickly became someone I admired and looked to as a true American. I often think of Scott and hope you know his memory is kept alive in our (The Fire Service) commitment to functional fitness and our faith in the Lord as he looks over those that go in harms way.

This whole thing just chokes me up. As a Canadian boy, the Navy Seals have always been my heroes. There just isn't anything higher to strive for except maybe becoming an astronaut or a fighter pilot. Why is it that so many other ex-Seals went on to developing companies that used their skills and Scott had difficulty in procuring work that was worthy of his training? I doubt that the fellow who he had problems with at Blackwater ever had to face charges for the negligence shown in the ill preparation for that particular "mission" into Faluja. The intimidation tactics and the unprofessional conduct that was leveled towards Scott left him in a dilemma which ended in disaster. An outfit like Blackwater uses and abuses the lives of men with varied talents, without making the distinction in the case of someone who was a veteran Seal who should have in fact been put in a training position and not just pushed into an SUV, ill equipped and without the proper maps or directions etc. He didn't have a chance, yet somehow was bullied into this "mission of doom"! My feelings go out to Scott's Mom and to his wife and kids. I don't know what else to say except that this sort of thing should NEVER have happened, especially with an organization that is supposed to be run by American veterans who themselves were once in the SPECOPS community.

You feel like the days you had were not enough when you said goodbye. And to all of the people with burdens and pains keepin' you back from your life. You believe that there's nothing and there is no one who can make it right. There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary, and love for the broken hearts. There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing He'll meet you wherever you are. Cry out to Jesus. Cry out to Jesus. For the marriage that's struggling just to hang on They lost all of their faith in love. and they've done all they can to make it right again still it's not enough. For the ones who can't break the addictions and chains you try to give up but you come back again. Just remember that you're not alone in your shame and your suffering. There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary, and love for the broken hearts. There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing He'll meet you wherever you are. Cry out to Jesus. When you're lonely and it feels like the whole world is falling on you you just reach out, you just cry out to Jesus Cry to Jesus. To the widow who suffers from being alone, wipin' the tears from her eyes. For the children around the world without a home, say a prayer tonight. There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary, and love for the broken hearts. There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing that meets you wherever you are. There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary, and love for the broken hearts. There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing that meets you wherever you are. Cry out to Jesus.

My son purchased Scott's video, two weeks before Fallujah.

Thank's Scott! Thank you and God Bless to Scott's family.

Ten plus years ago I purchased Scott's Elite Fitness Systems VHS pack. If my memory serves me correctly prior to making the purchase, I had a brief e-mail exchange followed up with a brief phone conversation with Scott to see if his tapes were the right fit for me since I was 40 at the time. Scott came across as very sincere and a man's man. This past Monday I turned 50 and wanted to rededicate myself to health and fitness and did a search with Scotts' name to see if he had the series in DVD or some new releases. I was shocked to see that the first thing that came up was Wikipedia were I for the first time learned of his death. I remember the events that took place, but must not have heard the reports after they released the names or didn't put it together. As a result, today I carry a heavy heart. I know Scott knew his purpose that God had for him and I am going to dedicate my fitness and health in his memory so I can continue to do the things I love in the outdoors. Scott, I will need your help in maintaining the dedication and discipline to remain consistent. Your friend in Christ, Tom

When I read the chapter about Scott I was completely devastated to hear that such a good person had fallen. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and it is very encouraging to hear of Scott's faith in Jesus. Scott is probably team leader of God's security detail. He was the best of the best.

As many others, I just came across this special area of the internet dedicated to Scott. I have learned of the events only today and feel as though I have known Scott forever. I have a good friend also named Scott that looks so much like Scott that they could be twins. He too was in the armed forces, an Army Ranger and is now a police officer in Ohio. It has been said that everyone in the world has a look alike. I would love to send a photo. I wanted to share something special, I lost my grandfather a few years ago. This was the first time that I had ever lost a loved one. After he passed away I was the first one into his hospital room. I told him to come and visit as often as he could. I had never even though about the afterlife or anything like that. Now it is 8 years later and he has come to visit me (in my dreams) 3 different times. Each of which, when I awoke I was exhausted and crying. I have since researched this and it is normal for communicating with the "afterlife." My point is that he told me these lovely words. He said "heaven is better than anyone could ever imagine!" These words have brought so much to our family and will be with me the rest of my life. I know that it was truly him coming to see me. I asked, why havent you come to visit anyone else? He said that "they are not ready!" In giving this thought I truly do not feel that my grandmother or mother could have handled this emotional visit. I am very strong willed, so I believe that he came to me to share his words. He was actually in heaven and sharing with me what it is like. Your friend, your husband is in a place that is so great, so perfect that we can only begin to imagine. The purpose of life here on earth is to do the best that we can (which Scott certainly did) and then go to meet the lord and complete our soul in heaven. Scott is that guardian angel that will keep Kel and the kids safe. He IS watching over all of you. God bless and I hope that this sheds some sunlight on your day. Feel free to email me as I would love to share more.

I am a British guy living in the UK and remember reading an article in "Men's Health" magazine which Scott had done with them back in 2001 I think. I still have that magazine all be it stored in the roof of my house. You see I keep it because of his great workout routine(I was once a heavy guy). I did write Scott an email once which he did answer himself about buying the navy seal DVD’s which he made. Although never purchased it due to it being region 1 setting. In the UK we are region 2 so it won’t play on our machines inless you have the machine chipped. However…..It is now 6 years later and I do have a chipped machine. Im thinking I will be buying the DVD’s soon. Wishing your family well and may a great guy be resting in peace, Jim.

I dated Scott briefly before he left Oceanside. We enjoyed each others company as single divorced parents and brought our kids to sushi together. He loved them so dearly and spoke tenderly of Trisha.

Finding her later miles away...my memory fades; but his didn't.

I remember Scott from MARG 2-87. I was Engineer Officer in USS Whidbey Island (LSD-41). He spotted me on the quarterdeck one morning when I was waiting to go out on a shopping trip in Venice, Italy with XO as his shotgun. I was wearing an Edgewater High School alumni t-shirt and he saw this from about 50 feet away. We talked about Orlando and about how he had been to West Orange High School and how I had a neice who was a freshman there. A couple of weeks later in Lisbon, Portugal he was assigned to Shore Patrol at fleet landing. I issued him probably the only unlawful command of my career concerning someone in the medical officer's face shouting insults, and he did it for me. One Sunday morning in 2004 I flicked on the radio and heard about his tragic dealth and realized, man, I met that dude, and he did something special for me.

I met Scott in 1986 in Spain. He was only passing through with a dedicated C141 and Seal gear. I spent the day with him talking about Grenada, Seals, SF's and had a great day. I only knew Scott for a day, but after the day was over, I felt like I knew him my entire life. The day we were together, we saved a life of a heart attack Spanish flight line worker. I was huge for me and just another day for Scott. I remember waiting for an ambulance that never arrived and Scott and I put the victim in the back of a truck and did it ourselves. When we arrived at the ER, an Air Force doctor ran to us and Scott was listing off the vitals. The docter was an asshole and told Scott, "Soldier, I've got it from here! in a mean tone" Scott's reply was priceless, Scott said, "Doctor, I'm not a soldier, I'm a Navy Seal, and this is my patient until I release him to you!" The doctor was speechless. Since I was also Air Force, I looked at the doctor as Scott and I passed him and said, "I'm with him" I know that Scott didn't think much of that day, but for me, I received a medal for our actions. Since 1986, I have always felt Scott should have been acknowledged for his actions...if it was not for Scott, I'm sure the victim would have died. The medal I received should have gone to Scott. You are missed my Brother! God Bless!

You’ve done your family very, very proud. I remember getting my GED diploma in the mail 11 years ago after attending Jefferson Alternative High School for 2 years. It was a huge relief and a sense of pride I’ll never forget as I’m sure accepting your diploma was as well. Tricia, I know you must be exploding with pride and love for your son right now and to share in this wonderful milestone in your first child’s life, I’m sure is a moment in your lives you’ll remember ALWAYS! Kyle, your father may not have been there physically to have shared in the moment, but he was there in spirit and I’m sure he is as proud of you as your mother is and had the best view of anyone there and at graduations that’s NOT easy. Kyle, just over three years ago you, your mother and your sister were dealt an inconceivable loss and you held on, suffered through it and have healed enough to move forward with your lives and now you’ve come out on the other side and are doing okay. That very fact alone after the tragedy and loss you suffered is a testament to what a wonderful mother you have. Though dealing with her own loss and pain she had the strength and courage to see you and your sister through yours. Now that’s a MOM!! Again, congratulations, Kyle.

I just heard about Scott's death, and I'm very sorry to hear about it. I served in Desert Storm with ST2 up until the down-sizing by Clinton. Therefore, I got to see many St guys fall to the way-side and into strange paths. Scott was an inspiration, with the way that he applied his training to become a personal trainer extraordinaire. I had even purchased his original SEAL Team Workout set myself. This was a beacon of positive energy, and it is obvious that he had a commitment to service. Again, I am sorry that he is gone, and outraged that it was ot given it's proper due attention.

I first saw Mr.Helvenston on the t.v. show on USA when it first aired, then joined the Marine Corps after 9/11 and ended up in one of the units that had just returned from Fallujah partly because of orders, and in heart because of what Mr. Helvenston and the others went through. I didn't make the connection until just a week ago when I tried to see if the show was on DVD and found clips of Mr. Helvenston and the others on the internet. I'm putting some of the clips together to use as examples and attention gainers for various classes for our junior Marines. Mr. Helvenston is still finding a way to inspire others. Still inspiring, and still missed.

Even as we near the three year anniversary of this tragedy, the sadness I felt after learning of Scott's death still resides in my soul. I can remember the first time I saw Scott on Combat Missions...I just thought he was the coolest guy. What really struck me was the resemblance he had to my own father, an ex-SEAL himself. He died of Agent Orange related cancer in 2002-Though I cannot begin to understand how Scott's death has affected those around him, I know what it feels like to lose one of these men in a broader sense. It only takes one look into Scott's eyes to see the kind of love for life he possessed. My father had that same look, as do many of his buddies for the teams. They just want to get out there and do it all-and best of all, the confidence they have in themselves enables them to do just that. The kind of affect this has on the ones around them cannot be understated-it's truly amazing to have one of these men at your side. You simply don't know how to live until you've "taught" how to by a Navy SEAL. It breaks my heart to know that a man like this was taken from Kelly and her children; and yet, I'm so happy that they had the opportunity to know him. These are the same feelings I have towards my own father, the ones that get me through each day-Though I only had him for a brief 14 years, the experiences and life he infused into me are worth countless lifetimes. God bless all of you, and no matter how difficult things become, always remember Scott's example: Never ring that bell! Branan Jacobs, University of Florida P.S:I don't know what kind of crazy things you're doing up there Scott, but if you ever want company, there's an equally crazy Florida guy named Ted Jacobs you should get in touch with. I think you'd like him a lot. God Bless and Hooyah!

Hello, my name is Dan and i live in Germany (I'am half-german / half-french). Here my story : I'm now 33 years old, and used to have an ill body covered with psoriasis (up to 80%) from 1999 to 2005. Before that time, i used to be a nice and attractive (healthy) guy, i really enjoyed life.Since i wasn't born with that illness, the speed with which it settled my entire body made my girlfriend leave, me which depressed me so much that i started to have suicidal tendencies because i didn't want to suffer anymore (appearence and pain). One day the Lord told me to change the way i lived : i stopped the junk food decided to start training. After some random searching in stores i found Scott's workout videotape hidden in the backroom of an old buy-and-sell shop. It looked dusty and old-fashioned, but "something" told me to take it. Well i can tell u that this training tape changed my life... After 6 months of daily training i had lowered my bodyweight from 115 kgs to 91 kgs (-24!) and healed my body (10% plaques left). But the strength and confidence that i gained didn't come from the training itself, but from Scott himself. I fell in love with his attitude, the timber of his voice, the kindness with which he leads the sessions. He pumped-up my mental again so much that i started to consider him as a friend (I'm not crazy). Sincethen, i always have the feeling that he is in the room with me and i can not imagine one single day without meeting Scott for an hour. On the day he left us, i was so sad that i sweat, i sweat all the tears of my body and didn't eat for a week. Anyway, i just wanted to send lots and lots of kisses to Kelly who shared his life. Be strong, i stand by u with all my strength and pray for Scott after everyday's session. Kelly, i wish i could take you in my arms and give you hope for i know what it is to lose someone you love. God Bless you and may Scott rest in peace for ever. We will both see him again someday. Until then we can “Only Imagine” what our eyes will see but we know he will be there to share it. Kisses.

I am so sorry and sad to hear of his passing I would have thought he would be a very big asset to this war and his brothers here at BLACKWATERUSA.. HOOAH Scotty from Ranger Hollywood

Hi- I am so sorry for your loss. It would be difficult to imagine your experience. I was shocked to hear Scott's name after 20 years. Scott and I went through Navy boot camp together in Company C-171, Division V in Orlando in 1982. It would have been difficult to forget Scott, because of the impression that he made. First of all, he was a good-looking guy. The kind of guy one wanted around to draw a crowd of women, so that one could score points with the also-rans, you know? Plus, his Mom, who lived fairly close by, as I recall, was the first Mom that made me think about moms in a whole new perspective-as a Hot Mom. Among other positive qualities, Scott had an electric enthusiasm that matched his neon smile. All of us got tan that Summer, but Scott got walnut brown, and that smile practically glowed in the dark. Other than for dramatic effect, even during the most arduous physical training, because of his fitness, I don't think that Scott broke a sweat, broke a heart rate of 60, or breathed hard at all. Our paths never crossed again after Boot, as far as I know. I went on and got my commission, and served on the USS Nashville, and USS Trenton as a Naval Officer. Of course, since Scott went on to make history as the youngest SEAL of his time, it's entirely possible that we had near-miss reunions at Little Creek, or Norfolk, since my ships went to both. We'll never know, I guess. I thought that you might want to hear about him from a younger time. I just wish that I had more to relate. He was a good guy then, and from what I've heard, he stayed that way. Please give my respects to his Mom, and rest of the family. Take care. Warmest regards, Paul (Buzz) Roe

This is a long time coming, I was not aware of this site. I was in the Corps as a Recon Marine. Ran into Scott once while I was in. I now work for DHS and I was at the airport the day Scott headed out to Iraq. He game me his card and we exchanged e-mail addresses. A week later I heard from him, not long after that I heard of his passing on the radio. It hit me then that I may have been one of the last operators to see Scott ConUS before he left. He was proud, and he carred with him honor and a powerful spirit. I will post a special tribute to him on Together We Served. God bless Scott, safe sails and fair winds.

What an amazing testimony that this Scott touched so many people's lives and is living on in such a wonderful way through this website, more than 2 years after God called him to Heaven. I found out about Scott's story several months ago, in similar fashion to many others that have visited here; I was searching/shopping for Navy SEAL workouts, and found this site in the midst. Scott lived a great life and inspired many, many people; that much is obvious just from the comments here and other articles I've found online. But what's more important than anything he did while on earth was his commitment to Jesus Christ, and willingness to share that with others. THAT is the only sure thing that any of us can hope for; eternal life in Heaven if we accept the Lord and live our lives for Him and not ourselves. None of us can avoid death from this life, and Scott realized that both with his pledge to God and the American public. So thanks for everything Scott! I'm proud to share the same first name, and now own & use every Navy SEAL workout that he produced. The words I hear from him several times a week include the unforgettable "Uh-one, two, thu-ree" count offs, as well as "A person with a STRONG stomach is a STRONG person" and my favorite "Pain is weakness leaving the body!" with that motivating grin. To Kelly, Tricia, the kids, and all the rest of Scott's family; remember those words of his, and know that there is another prayer warrior out here with your names on his lips. God Bless you all, and I pray that peace and comfort will come into your lives soon. ;)

Hi Kelly, I only learned of the lawsuit against Blackwater recently and about Scott also. It was a terrible tragedy what happened in Fallujah, but what was even worse is the disinterest which the US and Blackwater showed towards their greatest assets. I was driving to work as I listened to KPFK in LA and heard this sad story and it bought me to tears (which is saying something). Remember Scott only with joy as he is obviously someone who should be remembered as such. And take strength that he lived such an honorable life. He was obviously much too good for the treatment he received at the hands of Blackwater and the US government. My condolences to you, your children, his children, and your families.

I would like you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers, as are the rest of Scotty's family. I had the pleasure of knowing him when I lived in Virginia Beach, mid to late 80's. A story to share was the time I was going to stay home on New Year's because my boyfriend (his team mate) was out of town and I didn't have a date for New Year's being as it was couples. Scotty stepped up to the plate and was my "date" so I didn't have to miss the fun. It's been a lot of years, but at least I still have photos & memories to keep smiling over. I wish you the best and again, thanks for this site, it is a beautiful tribute.

I have been losing weight that I've wanted to lose for a very long time, which I hadn’t been able to do, until I tried yours and Scott's fitness dvd's. I feel better and I have a more positive outlook on life. For that I sincerely THANK YOU AND SCOTT from the bottom of my heart. Also I'd like to thank you for being such an inspiration to me. On the dvd you make it look so easy, but having done the workouts myself, I know they are not. You are sooo inspirational to me how you do them so effortlessly and are able to keep up with Scott as well as you do. You also looked like you were having a lot of fun. WOW! I respect you tremendously for it. Every night I pray for God to take care of Scott and for you, your children and Kelly to heal and to give you strength to face another day without him. If you think about it though you're not really without him. He loved you all and you all love him therefore you're a part of each other and carry him inside you everywhere you go.

Some may have disapproved of his attitude on the show, but I knew the values behind such an attitue. Today, I found an old tape showing evolution 13, and decided to see what became of a few of my favorites. I'm truly sorry for what happened, he was and will always be a good man. I'm not a religious person in the Christian sense, as I was raised, but I do follow ethics and principles, and I know that he's a passionate man who dedicated his life to his values and keeping Americans safe. God bless you and keep you safe. HooYah!

I used to hear stories about Scott from guys in the teams. Some knew Scott well having served with him, others that never served with him still knew him because of his persona. He was well liked by many, and not so well liked by a few. One called him a "a-hole" but followed with, "but he's our a-hole." I never met Scott...but I know he'll be missed. I cryed the day I heard he'd past...I know many cryed that day. I'm happy to know that Scott is with Christ.

I saw Scott on a TV show once and was impressed that he was a Navy SEAL at 17 (my current age). After watching that show was the first time I ever thought seriouly about serving in the military, which is what I now plan on doing after I graduate high school. Thank you Scott. Hooyah!

Just the other day I read about his story in GQ Magazine. It's a SHAME that he was put into a position with limited resources. I hope the families win the lawsuit against Blackwater.

To Scott's family, I am currently a contractor in Iraq, on my second tour. I came partially because a good friend of mine, Bruce Tow, was killed here in May 2004.

Feeling sad this evening… Watched a program on A&E which featured an officer, by the name of Steve Claggett, on the Dallas SWAT team. He looked sort of familiar, so decided to google his name – that lead me from Combat Missions, to Scott, and then finally – to his site. My wife and I were faithful viewers of Combat Missions; we were both shocked the day he died. Scott was such a fierce competitor, but you could feel that there was soft and gentle side to him. …as for the feeling of sadness. I was upset with my oldest son & sent him to bed early this evening. Scott’s site pretty much put it into perspective for me – one should really count their blessings. I’ll be sure to give him a ‘bigger’ hug in the morning My prayers go out to Kelly and the entire Helvenston family Peace

Hey Kelly, sorry its been a while since I have written. On September 30th I was in a bad car wreck where my truck flipped 3 times and I was throw 15 yards from it. Came out with only a scrach on my side. But I do have a brain contusion a bruised spleen and a little double vision which is almost completely gone. The reason Im mad is because I had a sign made and put on the back of my truck that said In Memory Of Scott Helvenston 1965-2004. Now I gotta have another one made. Scott was watching out for me 2. I also started college and am almost through with my first semester. I am attending Lsus and am playing baseball there. My goal now is to play past college but who knows!haha Just wanted to give you an update on me.. how are you guys? I also wanted you to know that there is never a day that goes by that I dont pray for You, Tricia, Kyle, Kelsey, and the rest of the family. I still continue to miss Scott a lot even though I didnt personally know him. I guess im sad because ya'll dont have him anymore. I feel how weak and fruitless must be any words of mine that would attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss overwhelming....but just keep your head up and know that you have millions of prayers being said for you each day! I Love you guys so much and if I could have taken Scotts place I would have!Hope all is well!Tell everyone that a strange person on the internet said hi lol..just kinda feel like i know ya'll so well and that im part of the family.

In watching the story of your Son's murder on television, I was enraged, as I often am in my research pertaining to the subject of the war in the Middle East. We should all be suspicious by the circumstances of his death, but also by the brevity of the storys that cover them. America knows there is more, and we should be demanding more attention. Countless Americans have been vicously killed not simply out of greed, but their deaths have been used to gain further support of this war. I urge you - PLEASE keep digging. You have only brushed the surface of these hidious crimes, but you are on the right track. -James

I have never met Scott but I admired his perserverance. I wanted to improved my fitness level and be in a decent level before I left for Air Force Basic training. So I bought a exercise video set and he was the instructor named. I was curious and read his bio. I still have the videos and just previous bought the training camp set. I am still in good shape. When I heard about his death on the news, I was in shock for I recognized his name from the exercise videos. He is an incredible individual and he will be terribly missed.

Well, we made it through the year anniversary of a day that changed all of our lives forever. Thank you for all of your prayers and thoughts - that is how we make it. The kids and I went to a high mountain top in Montana and "talked" to Scott and prayed and reflected. It was healing, hard, neccesary. We atalked about the things we missed about him and special things we remembered. Funny - Kelsey misses his hotdogs :) We all have special things we think of when we think of Scott and we all will continue to have those memories until we see him again. It was a hard week i know for a lot of people - us too!!! - but as Scott would say come on bubba stay strong - always the quest! Love to all, Tricia, Kyle and Kelsey and Roxxy too

I will never forget Scott's suggestion that since I was a solitary type I should also involve myself in team sports such as volleyball. I never got the chance to tell Scott that I flattened Jay's chief in a volleyball (Mark's suggestion for a team sport) shortly thereafter. Thanks for your support Scott.

I, like lots of others, worked out to one of Scotts videos. I, like several other women, used his video to prepare for a womens fitness camp, run by Chris, who is the man who saw Scott and the others killed with him, brought home. I loved Scotts enthusiasm for fitness and his sense of humor that he showed in his videos. I will never forget the day that I learned he was one of the contractors killed on that horrid day! All I could do was cry, but I could not imagine the pain his family and close friends were feeling. The closest I came to getting to know Scott was through the video and through a message posted a private bulletin board for those attending the fitness camp. His message was both motivational and informative and I believe helped all of us keep going in our fitness goals. When I actually attended camp, Scotts memory was with us the entire time. I still have a shirt that I have to earn the right to wear by completing some kind of a race. This shirt is in memory of Scott and the other 3 men killed with him. Not a day goes by that I don't think about Scott and all our men and women still fighting. Nor do I forget all the others we have lost or their families. Thank you for creating this site, where we can all remember Scott and post thoughts about him, for his family and ourselves. Please know that I keep him, his family and his friends in my prayers. He will not be forgotten! Rhonda

So be happy for me Loved Ones, You know I hold you dear, Be glad I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. I'm sending you a special gift from my heavenly home above, I send you many memories of my undying love, Love, a gift more precious than any of pure gold, And always most important in the stories Jesus told. Please cherish and keep each other as the Father said to do, And count the many blessings he has for each of you, Now, have a Merry Christmas, and wipe away that tear, Remember, I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I have to share this story: that the day after Scott and the 3 other contractors were killed, I had been feeling so disturbed and sad (I mean, I am for all the soldiers and everyone who are killed but anything fire particularly just gets to me). Now, just to get this right out, I'm not trying to preach religion or anything, but I did ask God to please give me some kind of sign that those men are at peace because I was feeling so horrible. Well...that night I had the most beautiful dream! And I NEVER get beautiful dreams; actually, I don't tend to dream at all. I was in this incredibly beautiful white house, like one of those stately-looking, classic Colonials, and there was this really pretty, ethereal-looking middle-aged blond lady showing me around the house. She was dressed in a white, light cotton, long suit jacket-type thing (but not really suit jacket b/c it was loose-fitting and casual), matching white pants, and a pastel-colored blouse. Everything about the house was spotless and gorgeous, and there were shiny cherrywood floors, a crystal chandellier, and a beautifully set table. Outside in the driveway there were 10 gorgeous luxury cars (mostly vintage). But the most spectacular thing was that this house looked directly over the water -- this beautifully clear body of water that stretched out almost endlessly. It was extremely sunny in this dream and the sun was glistening all over the water. The house had this awesome feature that was like a hall/path with a glass ceiling and walls (kind of like the way a sunroom or a conservatory looks), and it had the illusion that it was right over the water, and the sun was beaming right through it. When I looked out over the water in the distance, there were alternate views of both a beautiful city skyline and then these lush green trees. I can't speak for anyone else, but I feel in my heart that Scott and the others are at peace.

Those idiots in Iraq took that away from all of us. So, I am angry and want some pay back

I know that no one here knows me, but I don't think that really mattters. All my life, the only asperation I have ever held for myself is to be a Navy Seal. I've always loved to help people, and I figured that this would be the best way to do it. Anyway I always look for books or search the internet for topics about the Seals. One site I did come across was sealtraining.com. I loved the attitude that Scott had about fitness, and, being a former Seal, he became an inspiration for me. I train myself to look and have the same fitness goals that Scott had. I just want to say that I'm only 17 and I have pictures of Scott's body (for inspiration) all over my room. He has certainly kept my goals in check. It sickens me to hear the things that can happen to people that are only trying to help. Thanks to people like Scott, I know what I will do in my life: help people the way Scott did. By the way, the blonde hair girl in the picture with Miss Kasun is very cute. I'm assuming that's her daughter. Anyway God bless and thanks for this great site.

You don't know me but one of my best friends was fortunate enough to meet you on a recent plane flight. She sent out an email and the website link. It's a small world. A few years back Scott worked for my boss Gen. Schoomaker, the current Army Chief of Staff, when he was the commanding general of US Special Operations Command. Scott won't be forgotten. Nor will the 1000+ other's who have given their lives in Iraq. I just wanted to tell you that I'm very sorry for what has brought you to this point in your life, sorry for the tragic course of events that led to the death of Scott, and sorry that we live in a very dangerous world with some very bad people. Scott did not die in vain. His service to our country, in uniform and out, will be remembered and appreciated for many years to come. Regardless of politics and policies of the US, he sought the harder road, the one less traveled by most US citizens. He stepped up when most, nearly all, turned away. You were in great company and I'm very sorry that your lives together were cut short. Keep the faith and keep the candle lit.

I am so glad that your beautiful website somehow came to me. Our family did not personally know Scott, however, our son was a SEAL on Team 3 and also worked for Blackwater in Iraq. We have been trying to locate the right place to donate funds to Scott's children--could you please tell us how to get a donation in his memory to them? Every time I see Scott on the Navy SEAL calendar, it makes me so sad that his life was cut short in such a tragic way. He was a true American hero. The Zinn Family, Yorba Linda, California

I just wanted to say I know how you feel. I lost my dad in Iraq july 14 of 2003. I was looking at different sites and found this one. What a great place to come and think of two great men. May they both be watching over us and keeping paradise safe for all of us. God bless you Mr Helvenston. I miss my dad.

I just wanted to write a short msg to let you know that even though I never met either of you, I was very saddened by the news. I've only known of Scott through his stint on TV and his videos but I am saddened by this unfortunate event...just as I was when Pat Tillman passed. God bless you and the kids. This is such a wonderful tribute, as I'm sure you've heard a million times over.

Kelly, you proobably do not remember me, I was a waitress at La Especial Norte and waited on you several times. I remember your orders, chicken tortilla soup, chile relleno and margaritas, you and Scott brightened up my day, the energy, beauty and laughter you brought will never be forgotten. God Bless you.

Met you both a couple times climbing - you both beamed and seemed to enjoy one another. Stumbled to this site and just want to extend my condolences. Scott was a cool guy, what a tragedy. Kelly, I know our talks were brief, but you are a strong and charismatic woman - hang in there - my wife and I pray for you. Craig

This is the most beautiful gesture I have ever seen created out of love... Scott's memory will live on forever through the hearts of those who knew and loved him.

Scotty had a way of weaving himself into the hearts of all he met, even this grizzled ex-jarhead. He was tough, sure; but he had a heart of gold. He would not laugh at or demean my tears at his death - he'd understand. Let me put that in the present indicative: he does understand. For you see, I never shared Christ with him (to my regret) - but it looks like He got to Scotty anyway. That's the way He works, and Scotty's with Him even now, out of pain, out of sorrow and in joy we cannot even begin to imagine. So I'll see him later on and we'll pick up where we left off. Here's looking at you, Scotty. We love ya. Bill
