I have added remembrances that folks shared last year to honor those service members who gave their all. If you’d like, add your remembrances in the comments and I will put them into next year’s post.
Those who we remember will live on in our hearts and souls.
From Midwest Chick: Remembering SGT Shawna Morrison, KIA 5 Sep 2004 and
SPC Michelle Witmer, KIA 9 APR 2004, during Operation Iraqi Freedom II.
A special thanks to David (DLM Sgt USAF 1970…1974) who took the time to look them up last year.

From chicken thief: Paul Walter Heinz Brown Deer High school, marine KIA Republic of Vietnam March 1968. Did not know him that long but he was an impressive young man.

From Gerry: LCPL Jeffrey Burgess 25 March 2004
Iraqi Freedom
I didn’t know him but I did train with two members of his unit MWSG 37. He was an MP from Massachusetts killed by an IED.
A grunt gave me a KIA/MIA bracelet with his name on it for doing him a favor.
You are not forgotten.
