Personal Memories
People You Remember Sgt Menor, Cpl Harlacher, LCpl Storck, Cpl Ramirez
Memories I will never forget the feeling of pride I had in working alongside the Marines and Soldiers in the setting and context that I did during the early months of 2003. The manner in which the enlisted, staff, and officers carried out their duties was something to behold, truly. I've never been so proud as I was to partake in these Operations, nor prouder to be a Marine. I share in the hope of many that our collective efforts in Iraq and the Middle East will have lasting, positive results for the citizens of those nations and for the world at large. As with our men and women still in harm's way, my prayers are especially with the leaders of the Free World... That wisdom and courage are their constant companions. And that the sacrifices we ALL make will be worth it in the end.
