The Alumni of the 37th Armored Regiment honor the noble sacrifice, selfless service, and life of our Brother:
AO2 Marc A. Lee, USN
Naval Special Warfare Task Unit Ramadi fighting with TF1-37 Armor
Born: 20 Mar 1978 in Portland, Oregon
Killed in Action: 2 Aug 2009 (aged 28) in Ramadi, Iraq
Buried: Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery, San Diego, California
On 2 August 2006 a joint patrol by B TM 1-37 AR and Naval Special Warfare Task Unit Ramadi attacked a group of Al Qaeda in Iraq insurgents in a house in the the heart of Ramadi. As they cleared one of the buildings, Marc was struck and killed by enemy fire. He has the sad distinction of being the first Navy SEAL killed in action during OIF.
