A tribute to DC3 Nathan Bruckenthal who was killed while serving in the U.S. Coast Guard in Iraq. He is the first Coast Guardsmen killed in action since the Vietnam War. He an two other were killed when they were protecting an off shore oil platform and the USS Firebolt near Um Qusar. DC3 Bruckenthal put his life on the line to save others.
You won't be forgotten, Nate...even by those who never knew you. God bless.

This made me cry. Thank you so much for making this video. Nate was a dear friend of mine when I was much younger. This is such a beautiful way to honor him. Thank you.
