Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. We are grateful to Lance Cpl. Eric A. Palmisano for his willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice for us. We owe a debt that we can never repay.
We lost my nephew, Cpl. David A. Bass, in the same incident, so my heart really goes out to you.
God bless... |

100 Patriot Guard riders from Oregon and Washington were in attendance yesterday to pay tribute to SSgt Abe Twitchell, who was also lost in that incident. On behalf of all of us, I extend our sincere condolences to the family of Lance Cpl Palmisano. If it were possible, we would all be there for you, too. These men were great Heroes and paid the ultimate price. Their loss will not be forgotten. God Bless you all.
