Maj. Gen. Richard P. Mills, Regional Command Southwest commander, presents a plaque commemorating Capt. Trevor J. Yurista during a dedication ceremony at Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan Sept. 13. Following opening remarks, Mills gave a speech in honor of the fallen Marine. Yurista served two tours in Iraq before volunteering for Afghanistan three months later in August 2008. On October 27 while participating in operations in Now Zad, his vehicle hit an improvised explosive device during heavy enemy fire and was mortally wounded. Already selected for promotion, Capt. Yurista was posthumously promoted and awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal with a combat distinguishing device. (Official Royal Air Force Photo by: Sgt. Martin Downs)
