Fallen Heroes of Operation Iraqi Freedom

"Steve and I went to Koln, Germany together on a whim right before Iraq in '03. He loved his family and I really hope his little one will know how much of a hero he really was. We were advanced party for his first tour. We took the trip from Kuwait to Iraq together. He was a great soldier but was WAY more than that. I was fortunate to call Mennemeyer my friend. For his family, just know your son will NEVER be forgotten."

"I only found out today that you passed. I served with steven in Iraq back in 2003. He was a funny and very smart Medic and I was shocked when i got the news. I'm sorry i couldn't have given my sympathy to your family sooner, I was only attached to your unit and we got along well and playing UNO was our favorite pasttime while on shift.. UNO is a serious sport when you are playing with Steven and it was very fun times... Thank you for being you and being such a sweet guy. You will be missed. Be good up there and don't stir up too much trouble young man!!!!"
