Some of you may remember this thread from a while back about a fallen marine...

Here is an update
Marines pay lasts respects to fallen Lance Corporal Phelps
The attached link is from Memorial Day. These Marines (Left to right Cpl Montesinos, Cpl Arias, LCpl Fisk, LCpl Saucier, Cpl Halfmann, and Sgt Cooper. All are Lima Battery Marines except Sgt Cooper; he is now on recruiting duty.) of 3d Bn, 11th Marines had a long weekend and could've gone to the beach, gone home to visit their families, or anywhere else they wanted. What they did was drive 1,000 miles from 29 Palms, California to Dubois, Wyoming to stand in the snow and pay respects to LCpl Chance Phelps and his family. I know this gave the Phelps family great comfort and pride.
