Seàn you'd just taken over from me a few weeks prior and with excitement the 121st settled in and took on the job. My heart is literally broken at how your life ended. Every account I've heard about you is so positive so I know at the heart of it you died with your country flash on your shoulder and surrounded by your brothers. Everyone of us that wear or have worn the uniform will hold you in our hearts for a lifetime and your family will know your bravery. Rest easy brother, for you are that.
