Combat Fatalities
The Department of Defense announced the combat death of two Marines affiliated with the 2nd BCT.
Cpl. Jeremiah A. Baro and Lance Cpl. Jared P. Hubbard, of the 2/5 Marines, were killed in the Anbar province from enemy action. Cpl. Baro was 21 years old. Lance Cpl. Hubbard was 22. Both where from California. They are the 25th and 26th 2nd BCT servicemen killed serving our country in Iraq.
A California ABC affiliate and an AP article report that the two marines had been best friends since childhood. They were on the same high-school wrestling team, joined the Marines together, and were on their second tour of duty in Iraq as a sniper team. Our hearts go out to their families.

they were best friends.. The family thanks the outburst of support for their loss. Jeremiah or Jeral as he is fondly called will be missed terribly.
God bless their souls.
