Our prayers go out to this brave and noble young warrior who was there to serve his fellow men, HIS Marines, as their Corpsman. Our youngest son, also a Corpsman assigned to 2nd Marines, knew this young man. May his soul find peace and rest. May his death not be in vain, and may WE here in this nation remember that it is OUR sons and daughters who are keeping US free! I have been blessed to have two sons serve, one in the U S Marines during Operation Desert Storm, and our youngest, who serves now as a Corpsman. It is only thru the grace of God that this report was for another father's son. That is a totally sobering thought. Our prayers and thoughts go to his family at their time of loss.
