California Family Loses Second Son in Iraq War

A California family is suffering the loss of a second son in the Iraq war.

Twenty-one year-old Nathan Hubbard was killed in last week's crash of a Blackhawk helicopter.

His brother Marine Lance Cpl. Jared Hubbard was killed by a roadside bomb in Ramadi in 2004. A third brother is still deployed in Iraq, but he is returning home now to be with his family.
