On 23 March 2003, barely 4 days into the war, Corporal Patrick Nixon, 1st Battalion/2nd Marines, was killed in action in Iraq. He was the first of 97 Tennesseans to die there. They ranged from 18 to 54, private to lieutenant colonel. Please take a moment today to remember Corporal Nixon and the 96 other citizens of The Volunteer State who gave all in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
