1st Lt. Gregory Veteto, executive officer, Company C, 1st Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, and 2nd Lt. Ian Merry, platoon commander, Company C, 1/3, run with the 3rd Marine Regiment battle colors to begin the Fallen Heroes Run on Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Dec. 14. Since 2004, 116 Marines and sailors from 3rd Marine Regiment have been killed during operations in Afghanistan and Iraq. On Dec. 14 and 15, teams of at least two Marines or sailors in combat boots and camouflage trousers ran a 2-mile evolution 116 times — one for each fallen hero. The route took them from the 3rd Marine Regiment headquarters building to the Pacific War Memorial here and back.
