Eric A. Palmisano

   
Individuals USwww.marinecorpstimes.com -- The family of a Wisconsin Marine who went missing in a flash flood in Iraq will be able to lay him to rest.

The body of Lance Cpl. Eric A. Palmisano, 27, of Florence, Wis., was found April 11 after a nine-day search, Marine Corps officials said April 13.

Palmisano, a logistics vehicle system operator, died April 2 after the seven-ton utility truck he was riding in rolled during a flash flood near Al Asad air base, west of Baghdad. It’s unclear whether Palmisano was driving the truck at the time.

He was assigned to 1st Transportation Support Battalion, 1st Marine Logistics Group based at Camp Pendleton. He enlisted in the Marine Corps on March 15, 2005 and had received the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal and the National Defense Service Medal, according to the Camp Pendleton public affairs office.

A sailor, Petty Officer 3rd Class Marcques J. Nettles, 22, of Beaverton, Ore., is still missing as of April 13. Pentagon officials have listed him as “duty status-whereabouts unknown” and said that the search for him continues.

To the Palmisano family from the Wahl family. Deeply sadden by the news of Eric. Although, our family doesn"t know Eric personally. We realize he was our son's military brother. Sadly, neither knew one another. Still as gregory told me often. Brotherhood is among every soldier; Dad! We watch over one another and each others unit. So eric you did your mission with honour. You are a Hero to every American and the Iraqi people. You have not died in vain, nor will you have! We lost our son US Army Sgt. Gregory L. Wahl two years ago in Balad, Iraq 05-03-04. So truth be told, Eric you had been a comfort to me. That my son's mission was worth his lost. For soldiers like you Eric serve! You consider every American in the United States today. An we are very fortunate to have soldiers like Eric. It's a certainly....calling to serve one's country. This are the elite among American's. Those that don't serve should be very tnkful to those that do. Eric is someone's someone and he is someone to our family. GOD BLESS!
