The Department of Defense announced today the death of a soldier who was supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Pfc. Marius L. Ferrero, 23, of Miami, Fla., died Nov. 18 when an improvised explosive device detonated during a mounted patrol in Baquabah, Iraq. He was assigned to the 1st Battalion, 38th Infantry Regiment, 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, Fort Lewis, Wash.
All of us here are deeply saddened by the loss of another Stryker soldier.
I am so sorry for the loss of this fine young man.
Psalm 34:18
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit
GOD Bless you and your family. Your soldier was a true American Hero and we are all very proud of his service. He will not be forgotten!
