Specialist Adam Davis was less than a few weeks shy of his 20th birthday when the Army deployed him and others from the 173rd Airborne Brigade stationed in Vicenza, Italy, to Afghanistan.
Adam enlisted in the Army, following in the footsteps of numerous family members, including his grandfather, Albert Davis, who died from cancer. Albert was a sailor stationed in San Diego in World War II. Adam and his older brother TJ, who also enlisted in the Army, were very close to their grandpa.
Adam enjoyed reading most anything but enjoyed science fiction and fantasy; he loved to listen to music, go on hikes with his dad and brother, as well as spending time with his horse and skateboarding. He loved to spend time with his family and friends. His dream was to finish with the military and go to college to become an English professor.
Adam was the youngest of three siblings. He is survived by his father Tim Davis and mother Tracy Carrico.
