Adam Froehlich was moved to join the Army following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. He wound up being sent to Iraq and died in a roadside explosion three weeks after arriving there. "He was just a great person who loved his family, loved his country and believed in what he was fighting for," said his brother, Jeff Froehlich. Spc. Adam Froehlich, 21, of Pine Hill, N.J., died March 25. Stationed in Germany, he had hoped to pursue a college education after serving in the military and wanted to become a gym teacher. Froehlich had expressed concern before he went to Iraq. "Who wouldn't?" his brother said. "But he was very willing to go. He knew he was doing it for his country." He said his brother had been deeply moved by the Sept. 11 attacks. "That was really emotional for us," Jeff Froehlich said. "My brother loved his country."
