LCpl Jacob A. Hug

To the family of Jacob. I met your other son the other day recognizing that he was wearing a memorial bracelet. We talked about his and mine. I am a Marine mom and have been very involved in the military support field in Az. I told your son that I designed the Az Gold Star license plate and he said you may want to speak with me. Losing our children is the hardest walk ever but know that you are not in this Gold Star club alone. Please feel free to reach out to talk, cry, share, laugh or just...

Dear Hug family,

Your son and your brother gave ultimate sacrifice for my (Nepali) people in our hour of great despair. A soldier who stood in solidarity with human beings in their hour of need. He exemplified the best of humanity, a true soldier indeed. Thank you very much for sharing your son and your brother with us. We will always remember his life and sacrifice.

So very sorry for your terrible loss. He passed doing service for all of humanity. I wish I could thank him for his selflessness and bravery. I send you peace and thoughts, always

I love his smile in this photo. I think it must tell a lot about him. Thank you for sharing his stories. Thank you for this fine young man. Thank you for allowing us to honor him, respect him, and applaud him. We WILL remember WITH you.

His strength, bravery and courage will never be forgotten. Our deepest condolences to his family. Blue Star Mothers of America- Houston Texas Chapter

So sorry for the tragic loss of this young man.

To the Hug Family: bless you for having such a wonderful son. May you feel the hands of God comforting you at this time, and may you know there is a country grateful for his service (probably two as the Nepalese were benefitting from his service also). I have read your stories in the newspaper; thank you for sharing. May you stay strong. Peace be with you all.

Dear Hug Family,

Our deepest sympathy in this time of loss.

Every Marine, past and present is an honored part of our family.
