There have been many in my family that have served in the US military during various moments since the beginning of the 20th Century up to the present. None that I know of have actually died in battle. The closest was my maternal grandmother's father who served, and was wounded in France, during WWI. My cousin Eric currently serves in the U.S. Army and is stationed in South Korea with the rank of Master Sgt. My brother David is a Staff Sgt. in the USMC and is stationed at Camp Pendleton. He did two tours in Fallujah and was wounded in one of them. I briefly served in the U.S Army but was discharged during BCT due to health concerns in June 1999.
