Hundreds mourn fallen Rockland Marine

Children waved flags, Marines stood at attention and family members drank a final toast after a cemetery service for Marine Lance Cpl. Walter "Gator" O'Haire on what would have been his 21st birthday.
O'Haire was killed in action last week while serving in Al Anbar province, Iraq. A motorcade started in South Boston, where O'Haire spent the first 10 years of his life. Students from the Galvin School waved flags outside as dozens more came out to salute the procession.
Traffic was halted on the Southeast Expressway and Route 3 to make way for the giant motorcade as it approached Holy Family Church in Rockland.
On Union Street in Rockland, hundreds of students, shop owners and patriotic onlookers came out to view the procession. O'Haire and members of his family had stood on the same road on Memorial Day for the town parades in the past.
O'Haire was among three Massachusetts servicemen killed in Iraq in the past week. A fourth is missing. U.S. deaths in Iraq have now reached 3,398, including 57 from Masachusetts.
