21, of Orlando, Fla.

assigned to the 1st Battalion, 22nd Infantry, 1st Brigade, 4th Infantry Division, Fort Hood, Texas; killed March 28 when his element came under enemy small arms fire while conducting dismounted patrol operations in Baghdad.

Sean was a bright young man, so energetic, and missed very much by his comrades. The photo attached of his name scrawled into concrete was taken after we filled in some holes on a long stretch of Iraqi road that was pock-marked with the damage left by a detonated explosive device… forever leaving his name on the Iraqi countryside. He is greatly missed.

what is this?
