Donald and Robyn Pannier, family of Spc. Phillip Pannier posing during the July 20 Chicago Fire Boat Architectural Tour on Lake Michigan and the Chicago River. Pannier, of Washburn, Ill.; was assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 327th Infantry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), Fort Campbell, Ky. He died Jan. 8, 2008 in Samarra, Iraq, of wounds sustained during combat operations. The boat tour was led by Maj. Gen. Rodney Boyd, the Adjutant General of the State of Illinois and Commander of the Illinois National Guard and organized by the U.S. Army's Survivor Outreach Services and the Illinois National Guard for the 34 Illinois National Guard Gold Star Families whose service members were killed overseas since the September 11, 2001, terror attacks. This year, the tour was opened to Gold Star families whose family members served on active duty or in the Reserves. The tour gave the Gold Star Families time to connect with one other and with the leadership of the Illinois National Guard.
