Dear God! I feel for this family! The same scenario…We lost our boy in Iraq, 2004. He had just turned 18 and enlisted. He was killed covering his platoon as they were escaping an ambush. He was a hero! Time may heal the wound but the pain stays. We were and are still so proud of him! God bless this family!

Depending on why he got a heart attack and died, actual combat might have just had him die on the battle field suddenly of said aforementioned heart attack. If he didn't have those issues he would have been a great soldier for sure. Shame really but it's great that the country is honoring him for his service.

What killed him is a toxic culture we create were a young Marine thinks seeking medical care is going to be seen as a sign of weakness or laziness.
