I had the distinct pleasure of serving with Travis during our OIF 05-07 deployment with 2nd Battalion 8th Marines. Travis carried a spirit about him that did not matter what was going on he could make those surrounding him forget long enough to laugh. My prayers go out to the Brake family as he will never be forgotten.

SGT BRAKE...WOW, MY YOUNG MARINE IN 2/8 WILL BE MISSED BY AN UNCOUNTABLE NUMBER OF MARINES. HE IS ONE I COULD COUNT ON, THAT I PUSHED ON TO STRENGTHEN AND TO NO SURPRISE HE OVERCAME EACH AND EVERY OBSTACLE IN HIS PATH. I TOOK HIM TO MARSOC WITH ME AND THERE, WITH NO SURPRISE, HE WAS A STAR...A SMALL UNIT LEADER WITH THE EXPERIENCE, ENERGY, MATURITY AND COMMON SENSE OUTLOOK THAT TOOK CARE OF HIS MARINES AND ACCOMPLISHED EACH AND EVERY MISSION IN THE HIGHEST OF STANDARDS...WHICH IS ALL A TRUE...
