My deepest condolences to the family and friends of this hero. We will mourn him, and we will honor him, together.
Reports tonight were that Marc single handedly held off a group of insurgents during the rescue of a downed soldier, sacrificing his life for others. "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man may lay down his life for his friends."
God bless his family in their time of need. Let them feel the love and gratitude of us all. Let them find some comfort in the knowledge that they raised and supported and loved a great man, and a true hero.
Standing by, for whatever is needed or requested.

Petty Officer Lee has entered the house of the Lord. Who better to stand watch at Heaven's gates, than one of America's finest?
P.O. Lee's folks reside in another state, New York, I think. This mission could as easily be out of Oregon. Stay tuned for further details.
