I cry every time I see these names. If you go to DC, there are pictures (at the women's memorial in Arlington) of quite a few of those who have fallen in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's like the Vietnam Memorial. Very heartbreaking.

From what I understand, LCPL Hogan saved several members of his team from an IED but lost his life in the process.
