Semper Fi, Brother.... You are now under the Command of the Supreme Commandant, duty station: Marine Barracks Heaven, guarding the streets... my heart goes out to his wife and family
You are a hero Ricky like the Ricky Nelson that died in 1985 both of you to young and so much to live for and you are special to look after your country and best wishes to Kristen & Family hope you can always remember the good times and not the bad ones life is to short enjoy every day everyone love from Michael
Though I don't know thee and thine, I stumble across this but I do not believe in accidents. My heart, tears and prayers go out thee my sister and for my brother in arms, we are family, SEMPER FI. Know this my sister Kristen, We will all be together soon one day but not yet. GOD BLESS YOU.
I just sat through a very moving video of a total stranger but it bought tears to my eyes listerning to and watching it. RIP Sincere sympathy to his family. he died a hero.
Anthony, obviously he's not the same Ricky Nelson. By extreme coincidence, though, like Rick Nelson (of Ozzie & Harriet fame), he also married a girl named Kristen, had an older brother named David Nelson, and died before his time. Thanks, Nelson family, for letting us get to know your son through these videos. We are very touched and grateful for his service.
This is such a beautiful video of two people in love. But it's absolutely heartbreaking once you realize that Ricky died in the line of duty less than a year later. My heart and my support goes out to you Kristen. So sorry for your loss

I love that song so much - but know - after I saw and read this - it bring tears to my eyes every time.
As someone who came from a country full of wars that had left so many families broken - I know your pain.
So stay strong and remember that Rick is out there looking out for you from wherever he is.

Weep not for the warrior, for he is at peace
Those he is with now, know he gave his best
To have known him, we should rejoice
And happy we'll be, when our paths cross
again.
Thank you for your service young troop!
