Combat Photographer killed in action.

[Chad Leddy]

Being a former Combat Photographer, I feel the need to pass this story on. This is the second Combat Photographer to die since Vietnam.

On Sept. 28, Marine Lance Cpl. Ralph J. Fabbri, combat photographer, made
the ultimate sacrifice while conducting combat operations in Afghanistan.

The first to die was a friend of mine, Cpl William Salazar who died in Iraq in October, 2004.

Fabbri was a buddy of mine from MOS school. He was a very good guy and Marine, may he rest in peace.
