David J. Brangman was home-schooled… He joined up both to earn money for college and after being profoundly affected by the Sept. 11 attacks. “He wanted to do something for his country,” said Ortiz. “And that’s what he did.” Brangman and his family moved from Albany, N.Y., six years ago. He loved to draw and dreamed of being an architect.
