    U.S. Marines and sailors serving with Delta Company, 1st Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, in Helmand province’s Khan Neshin district gathered April 8, 2012, to pay homage to Cpl. Roberto Cazarez, a light armored vehicle driver with the company’s Alpha Section, White Platoon. Cazarez, an Angostura, Mexico, native, was killed in action during combat operations March 30, 2012. Some of his fellow Marines said he’ll be remembered most for his humor and good-natured debates he sparked among his friends. He enlisted in the Marine Corps out of Los Angeles, served for nearly six years and was with the battalion since March 2010. His awards include the Purple Heart, the Navy Achievement Medal, and the Combat Action Ribbon.
