It is difficult to know what to say since I want to express my sincere sympathy to the family and friends of Lance Cpl Maglione. Please know that your loved one is not forgotten. I wish everyone impacted by this tragic loss strength and peace. I hope that Lance Cpl Maglione knew that there are people in America who respect his great courage in serving as a member of the US military. Although I did not know him, I know that he must have been a very special person to be willing to do something that most Americans will never have to experience and for that we can never say thank you enough.
Thank you Lance Cpl Maglione!

To the Maglione family,
Please know that just as your loved one will forever remain in your hearts and minds, his sacrifice and that of your family, remains with the people he died defending. Words cannot express the gratitude we feel for his bravery and selflessness, or the heartache we feel for your loss. God grant you the peace that passes all understanding.

If this person can stand in battle to ensure my freedom, then I will stand in grief with his/her family to honor him/her. For every fallen HERO there is a bright star that shines in the evening sky to remind us of the cherished gift we were given – even if for too short a time.
My heart breaks again as I sign yet another guest book of another courageous young soldier who gave their life so selflessly. I wish I never found myself in a position to have to sign another guest book for the rest of my life, but I promised Le Ron A. Wilson (a dear friend KIA 7/6/07, 18yrs old) that neither he nor any like him would be forgotten and so I will continue until the day there is no longer the need.

“Paid in Full”
To Honor The Service of Fallen and Injured Marines


Marines through and through, they paid the price
Six thousand miles away, we live the life
For which they paid with their blood, spirits and bodies
We will never forget what they paid in full

We hope and we pray that somehow their loved ones find comfort
In God, in the flag, in the memory of their loved ones’ bravery
They’re gone now but we see them still…proud, strong, willing
Covering each other’s backs… courageous, moving forward

What kind of love did they have for us to be willing
To give it all for the Black, White, Jew, Christian, Muslim?
We don’t comprehend but we honor you now and forever
You are Our Marines…some living…some not
Forever in our hearts we will cherish your lives

Lives too short yet immortal they’ll be
Highest brotherhood of the Few, the Proud
They stand at attention, and we gaze with awe
Some know their names not, but our admiration for them
Flows limitless within us, between us

They sacrificed their limbs or their lives
Freedom still rings, a soft sound across the miles
It tolls slowly; all of creation takes note
Of the lives that were lost for people unknown

Out of sight but not lost; forever among us
The starched blues marching straight
Toward the place where we will meet them
Many years from now…how we loved them…
Well done beloved Brothers and Sisters…You’ve paid it in full
Always Faithful Marines, You Have Paid it in Full

To the Maglione Family,

My name is Jessica Blydenburgh, I am stationed at Elmendorf AFB, AK and am currently deployed to Iraq. I have been in the Air Force for 2 years now. I attended tech school at Ft. Leonard Wood, MO. At the PX there they had a little concession stand selling rememberance bracelets for the fallen troops. I searched through all of them to find a Marine, since my brother is a Marine. I found your sons name and I purchased it. I have been wearing it ever since, that was a year and a half ago. I just want to let you know that you and your son will always be in my thoughts and prayers along with the thousands of other fallen troops. He will never be forgotten.

Dear Maglione Family,



I recently got sent this email with the listings of the deceased. I found your son who shares the same hometown as I, Lansdale. I would like to share my condolences on your loss. I serve as well but in the Air Force, currently overseas in the United Kingdom. I am sure that you are proud of his service even though he paid the ultimate price, you should always remember that he did more than most will ever do for their country.

thank you for serving your country, believing in our freedom, and to keep us safe. I attended your funeral at the Shrine, where my parents are buried and it was a fitting service for a job well done.

Thank you again and God bless.

Prayers for your family.
