Captain (ret.) Matthew Zedwick performs the National Anthem during a ceremony Purple Heart Ceremony held at the Corvallis Armory on Feb. 3, 2024, recognizing three Oregon National Guard heroes for their sacrifice during Operation Iraqi Freedom 2. The ceremony paid tribute to Jeromy Turner (far left), Martin Theurer (second from left), and Ken Kaiser (third from left), who were members of Bravo Company, 2nd Battalion, 162nd Infantry Regiment (2-162), a unit that faced some of the fiercest fighting in the Iraq war. The event, which drew attention to the courage and resilience exhibited by the soldiers, featured remarks from Brig. Gen. Eric Riley, Land Component Commander for the Oregon National Guard and former Bravo Company Commander during the 2004-05 deployment. Zedwick was in the same unit as those honored at the ceremony.
