USMC '99-'03
Sgt/E5
0311(infantry)/8152(security forces)
Served at NSB Bangor and with Kilo Co. 3/1 Horno/Pendleton. The presumptuous call it the "Thundering 3rd," those of us that lived it called it the Thundering Turd. Very proud brother of Martin Gonzalez, a real hero.

I knew Brad Kasal when he was just a 1st Sgt.

No pictures. I'm not handsome like Price.
