"I never want to forget the sacrifices of so many young men and women. I am so proud it makes me cry. I understand in theory only that war is a part of human nature but so is love and caring. I wish I could take the families pain away but I can't. I am committed to loving ALL people, myself and our environment. I am committed to working on my happiness everyday because so many have died for my freedom to live my life. Thank you is not enough but it is all I have. All my love and respect. ogersteiner@yahoo.com

"Greetings,

I was Roberto's squad leader during his first tour in Iraq, and I was shocked and devastated when I heard the news of his passing. It actually took me this long to find the courage to speak of it. He was a great soldier and patriot, also that he was a great young man.

Not a day that goes by in which I don't think of the soldiers who pay the ultimate sacrifice fighting our nations wars.

Roberto was a true friend, soldier, and I shall dearly miss him.

My heart goes out to his family for thier loss, but hopefully they can take pride in the fact that Martinez will live in our hearts as a true warrior and patriot.

Much Love,
Cpl Elam"
