Wow to see the names on here just makes me a little wierd, you just dont know until its written like a textbook entry I guess. I am so glad to hear that LCPL Preach had a good reception. That touches me well since I knew him well. We'll be giving him his memorial here tomorrow along with the 11 others we lost in Afghanistan. Its said to see that the EOD Chief died since we've been back. Semper Fi to all those fallen
