SSG Joseph (Joe) Weiglein

My good friend Joe was Killed in Action on May 29, 2007 while he was deployed to Operation Iraqi Freedom. His anniversary to his wife was this past Labor Day so we met them in Washington D.C. at the Arlington National Cemetery to pay tribute to him and his wife Jen. Joe and Jen’s parents were able to make it, a friend of Jen’s, and old friend of ours Bobby and his girlfriend was there too. It was very difficult but his wife is an amazing, strong, loving woman and it was great to laugh and cry together. He will be greatly missed but never forgotten.



We were also able to see the Vietnam Memorial and Korean War Memorial. It was a very humbling experience. Thank you to those Veteran’s in the past that may not have gotten the support that we do today. I salute you. CPT BENJAMIN J. VINCENT
