Description: Two days after he arrived at the depot, Pvt. Evan Plunkett, Platoon 2146, Company G, received a phone call from his mother, who told him he had lost his father and his closest friend in separate incidents during the same day. His loss made boot camp more mentally challenging, but he pulled through with the memory and inspiration from his father, who was a Marine. Photo submitted 11/02/2007 Taken by Lance Cpl.
