Angel Ramon Ramirez (1979-2007)

Marine Lance Corporal Angel Ramon Ramirez died in California in 2007 following a non-hostile incident in Al Quaim, Iraq in December, 2006. It was an honor to photograph his grave, but it also made me quite angry that he had to make so great a sacrifice for such a morally ambiguous cause.

Next: Leonard Bernstein (1918-1990)
