Drew Nicholas Jensen

Years before adulthood, our extended family would enjoy a retreat at Beverly Beach State Park, camping together for several days.
The kids all wanted to take their bikes up the steep hill to the small grocery store, for some candy or something. My daughter was so little, she had training wheels on her bike. I told her that she could go to the store too, but must walk her bike up, and back down the hill.

Remembering you on this weekend. On Memorial Day, my oldest boy always inquires about my "Army Friends" and I always tell him I didn't have any. I tell him we are brothers and he has always given me a confused stare. This year I think he finally understands. I'm thankful that I was able to spend the time with you I did. You will always be remembered Brother, RLTW!

Not forgotten brother. I often wonder at the life you would have lived, and will tell your story to my children.

Just read about Captain Jensen. He will never be forgotten. May his memory be a blessing.

I saw the ten year anniversary for Captain Jensen in the Oregonian recently. I can't imagine the sadness his family experienced upon learning of this courageous man's passing. Please accept this as a show of support for a true American hero. In giving your life in the pursuit of freedom, please know that there are people forever grateful for your service. Thank you Captain Drew Jensen.

Not forgotten...

I just remember CPT Jensen was walking in the opposite direction but I recognized him from his sillohuete, approached him with a salute and reluctantly asked him where the TOC was at. Although he clearly...

We're going to miss him.
