SSG Larry Ismael Rougle

Miss you brother.... we're all out now, Mike, Chris, Shelly, Eddie and I....we're all four sheets to the wind, worrying and stressing about normal people problems, seems ridiculous now.... the wars have reached their sad unfinished end, and many of us are left asking why and what for, I know for me just a whole lot of hurt.... all we have left are the memories brother, of our youth, of our time together back in Italy and in the fight.... we all miss you Larry, almost 15 years now and it seems...

I was his Drill Sergeant. This man was legit I had plenty of good conversations with him..." I want to be the best Soldier ever"

Having a GnT in your honor tonight. I can´t believe it´s been so long....but wonderful memories of you make me smile to this day. "Stay safe handsome soldier!" You are dearly missed Larry.

I didn't know Larry, but I went to school with his brother from Jr. High all the way through High School. I first found out about him from reading Sebastian Junger's book "War", I recognized his name, and realized that I knew David. I spent the next few years finding everything I could about Larry.

I'm a Ranger, too, and being from the same town I keep Larry's honor alive as my Airborne Ranger in the Sky. Thanks, Larry.

Is there a way to get in contact with the family? Just wanted to let them know I wear a bracelet in memory of Larry.

It's been 11 years today that the world changed for so many of us. Since that fateful day so many more changes have taken place. We are different people now and many of us in different places in this very different world, but the one constant is that we still walk with the hearts that broke that day. We were all changed the same way on that same day to have lost you forever except in our memories and what is left of our broken, shattered hearts. Time has not made it easier, or less sad, or...

I hope that we will all meet us in heaven Larry. You will be never forget! RIP
