The soldier son of a former Green Bay Packer has died in an accident
in Iraq, his father said Monday.
Mike Hunt told reporters the family was informed that his 20-year-old
son, Isaiah, of Suamico, died in the arms of his commander after the
accident Sunday night just north of Baghdad. He reportedly fell from a
vehicle that collided with another one.
He was a driver with the 82nd Airborne Division out of Fort Bragg,
N.C., the family said.
Mike Hunt said Isaiah had been in Iraq for four months and looked
forward to coming home for Christmas. He graduated from Bay Port High
School in 2002.
Mike Hunt was a linebacker with the Packers from 1978 to 1980.
There have been 27 members of the military from Wisconsin killed in
the war in Iraq.
The U.S. Defense Department announced over the weekend that Cpl. Brian
P. Prening, 24, a Marine reservist from the Sheboygan area, died
Friday as a result of enemy action in Babil Province, Iraq.
He was one of four Wisconsin servicmen killed in Iraq last week.

I'd definitely choose to go by "Michael" if my last name's Hunt.
I remember at my friend's biker dad's funeral, there was a bouquet of
flowers signed "Really gonna miss you, big guy - Mike Hunt."
