The Final Hour

These are the last two photographs taken of Captain D-Ring Terhune, neither photo is very good, however they are the last two and were taken about 30 minutes prior to our engagement. In both photos D-Ring and I are talking about how much fun we get out of keeping up with the young Marines, but how we are usually sore the next day. I was teasing him for complaining about being old as I am 5 years older than he is.


The last photo was taken at the memorial in Bala Baluk. The Marines in the photo were the ones fighting by D-Ring's side during the engagement.


I will never forget Captain D-Ring Terhune.


Semper Fidelis,

To all his friends still in the fight:

We cannot thank you all enough for what you are doing for our country and our world. It must be the most difficult thing to see your friend cut down in battle. I know the void cannot be filled.

Know that we are praying for you and your families as you are deployed. Your service and your friendship with Eric are not forgotten. You are all heroes.

God bless America,
Sherri Martin
