JOSE A. GARIBAY

Age: 21

Rank: Corporal, 1st Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Expeditionary Brigade

Hometown: Costa Mesa, Calif.

Joséé Angel Garibay was born in Jalisco, Mexico, one of seven sons and one daughter of Simona Garibay.

The mother brought her family to the United States when Joséé was just 2 months old.

The young man grew up in Costa Mesa and attended Whittier Elementary and Ensign Intermediate School. He played football at Newport Harbor High.

He joined the Marines three years ago and was assigned to the 1st Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment. He planned to be a police officer after leaving the Marines next year.

Garibay was killed in action March 23 near Nassiriyah.

Garibay wrote to his mother often, family members said. In his last letter, he asked for a package of his favorite Mexican candies and a CD of popular ranchera singer Vicente Fernáández.

''He was a happy and robust son who was proud to be a Marine,'' his mother said. ''He died honorably.''

JOE JESUS GARZA

Age: 43

Rank: 1st Sergeant, 1st Battalion, 30th Infantry Regiment

Hometown: Robstown, Texas

Joe Garza was a tough drill sergeant to many Army recruits, but to his little sister he was more like a father.

''He was always like my dad,'' said Irma Garza Galvan. ''He had to be the center of attention. He liked to take pictures, and make people laugh.''

Garza was killed April 28 in Baghdad when the Humvee in which he was riding swerved to avoid a civilian vehicle, causing him to fall out. He was then struck by a civilian vehicle.

Garza graduated from Robstown High School, where he had been a long-distance runner, in 1978. He met his wife of 24 years, Mary, when he was a senior. The couple had three children, Joe Jr., John and Myra.

After 19 years in the Army, Garza had no plans to leave.

''He told me he was going to stay in for as long as the Army would let him,'' said nephew Sev Lopez. ''He loved what he did.''

JONATHAN L. GIFFORD

Age: 30

Rank: Private, 1st Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Expeditionary Brigade

Hometown: Macon, Ill.

Twice, when Jonathan Gifford was a teenager and at age 25, his mother, Vicky Langley, talked him out of joining the Marines. When he finally enlisted at age 28, he didn't tell her.

But after the Sept. 11 attacks, her intuition kicked in. One day, Langley asked him point-blank, ''When are you going?''

''How did you know?'' Gifford asked her.

''I just figured, knowing you, you're going now,'' she told him.

Gifford was killed in combat March 23 near An Nasiriyah, Iraq.

Gifford graduated from Stephen Decatur High School in 1991. He was married in July 1993, and had a daughter, Lexie, now 4. The Giffords divorced in 2001.

''He was a brother to me,'' said Neil Jimison, who attended boot camp with Gifford. ''Everybody looked up to him because he was older. He was a leader type.''

JESSE A. GIVENS

Age: 34

Rank: Private 1st Class, 2nd Squadron, 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment

Hometown: Springfield, Mo.

Jesse Givens enlisted in January 2002 in his early 30s after being laid off from his managerial job with a Missouri specialty discount store chain.

He kept up with his younger peers in boot camp, who good-naturedly called him ''grampa'' or ''pops.''

''He was surprised at his age that he could complete basic [training] and do it without injuring himself or embarrassing himself,'' said his brother, Reg Givens.

Jesse Givens drowned May 1 in Al Habbaniyah, Iraq, when a bank of the Euphrates River gave way beneath his M-1 tank, causing it to fall into the river.

Givens wrestled and played football for Glendale High School, and graduated in 1987. He joined the Army to further his education. He married his longtime sweetheart, Melissa, after basic training.

He had a 5-year-old stepson, Dakota, and his wife was expecting their first child in June.

ARMANDO ARIEL GONZALEZ

Age: 25

Rank: Corporal, Marine Wing Support Squadron (MWSS)-273, Marine Wing Support Group (MWSG)-27, 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing

Hometown: Hialeah, Fla.

Armando Ariel Gonzalez hoped to be an American citizen, a firefighter and a father. And he longed for his mother in Cuba to join him in the United States.

Most of those dreams were realized, albeit posthumously, at his funeral Mass April 29 in Hialeah.

Gonzalez was killed April 14 when a refueling tanker collapsed on him in Iraq.

Gonzalez arrived on a raft from Cuba in 1995 with his father and brother. He a enlisted three years ago.

''He is the best of what it means to be an immigrant in this country,'' said the Rev. Alberto CutiÎÎ. ''He took a flag, a flag he adopted as his own, and took it to the other end of the world to defend what that flag stands for.''

Gonzalez' mother, Dolores, arrived with special permission from Cuba to pray over her son's body. Hialeah's mayor promised Gonzalez would be named an honorary fireman.

And his widow, four months pregnant, was presented with framed documents declaring her husband's posthumous naturalization as an American.

JESUS A. GONZALEZ

Age: 22

Rank: Corporal, 1st Tank Battalion, 1st Marine Division

Hometown: Indio, Calif.

Jesus Gonzalez had the flag of Mexico -- his birth nation -- tattooed on his body. But he had always wanted to be in the U.S. military -- and died under his adoptive nation's flag.

''He wanted to be in the Marines to get ahead in life, to improve his life and gain experience,'' said his stepgrandfather, Leopoldo G. Treviano. ''He was patriotic, both as a Mexican and for the country where he lived.''

Gonzalez was killed in action April 12 while staffing a checkpoint in Baghdad.

Gonzalez graduated from Indio High School, and later attended the College of the Desert. His best friend and cousin were Marines stationed at Twentynine Palms, Calif., which influenced his decision to enlist.

''Even as a youngster, he would talk about going into the military,'' Treviano said.

Gonzalez, who wasn't yet a U.S. citizen, was married and had a daughter, 2.

JORGE A. GONZALEZ

Age: 20

Rank: Corporal, 1st Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Expeditionary Brigade

Hometown: Los Angeles

Rosa and Mario González learned of their son's death at their home, while watching a television program from the Arab station Al Jazeera, rebroadcast by Telemundo.

An Iraqi soldier picked up a dead Marine and brought his face up to the camera. It was Jorge, the second-oldest of their six children, killed March 23 in Nassiriyah.

González, an avid soccer player, graduated from El Monte High School and immediately enlisted in the Marine Corps.

His wife, Jazty, 25, gave birth to a son, Alonso, on March 3 at Camp Lejeune.

The young man hoped to retire from the Marines in about a year and become a policeman.

On Tuesday, after learning officially of her son's death, Rosa González received a letter from him. ''If you can wait just a little, I'll see you in the summer,'' the Marine wrote -- ''God willing.''

BERNARD G. GOODEN

Age: 22

Rank: Corporal, 2nd Tank Battalion, 2nd Marine Division

Hometown: Mt. Vernon, N.Y.

Bernard Gooden moved from Jamaica to Canada at age 16, and grew to love his new country so much he became a Canadian citizen last summer - but he died for the United States.

Gooden was killed in a gun battle April 4 in central Iraq.

Gooden lived with his father in Whitby, Ont., and attended high school there. He spent two years at Centennial College and a year at York University. The straight-A student spoke of becoming a lawyer.

''He just always loved Canadian life,'' said his girlfriend, Elizabeth Knox.

He and Knox often stayed up late watching war movies. But he wasn't a warrior type, she said.

''He loved those movies, but he was so soft,'' she said. ''He didn't go in [to the Marine Corps] wanting to fight.''

During a stay with his mother in Mt. Vernon, N.Y., Gooden joined the Marines to further his education.

Rank: Specialist, 1460th Transportation Company

Hometown: Midland, Mich.

It had been five years since Richard Goward ended a six-year tour on active duty with the Army. But the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, led him to sign up with the Michigan National Guard.

'He told me, `If I can't protect my family, then who can?' '' said Goward's wife, Karen.

Goward was killed April 14 in Iraq when his heavy transport truck entered a dust cloud and crashed into the truck in front of him.

Goward worked for four years as a corrections officer at the St. Louis Correctional Facility.

''Ric was a wonderful husband and father,'' his wife said. ''He enjoyed jujitsu and outdoor activities.''

The couple had two daughters, Nicole and Tessa, ages 8 and 5.

PATRICK LEE GRIFFIN JR.

Age: 31

Rank: Staff Sergeant, 728th Air Control Squadron

Hometown: Elgin, S.C.

Patrick Griffin left quietly for the Persian Gulf, to avoid disturbing his sleeping kids.

''We didn't want to wake the kids or anything, so we just said goodbye at the house,'' said his wife, Michelle. ``I walked him out to the car . . . and that was it.''

Griffin was killed May 13 when his convoy was ambushed about 100 miles southeast of Baghdad.

Griffin grew up in Dryden, in upstate New York. He had known his wife since childhood and married her in 1997. They had two children, Mackensie, 2, and Cory, 4.

Michelle Griffin said her husband had talked of enlisting since he was 18, and finally did it seven years later.

He had a passion for NASCAR races.

''Our only argument was the race . . . having to sit there all day Sunday and watch,'' Michelle Griffin said. ``He was the best father. He was the best of everything.''

HANS N. GUKEISEN

Age: 31

Rank: Chief Warrant Officer, 571st Air Medical Company

Hometown: Lead, S.D.

Hans Gukeisen hoped to learn to fly helicopters in the Army, but the 1991 Gulf War aborted those plans. He left the Army after that war to pursue college -- but his old dream drew him back.

''He realized what he wanted was to fly helicopters, so he re-enlisted and eventually got his wish to go to helicopter school,'' said his father, Terry Gukeisen.

Gukeisen was killed May 9 when his helicopter snagged a power line and crashed near Samarrah, Iraq, while on a mission to evacuate a wounded Iraqi child. The child, in a second helicopter, survived.

Gukeisen was involved in theater at Lead High School. He graduated in 1989. He was a fan of drag racing, driving a black Dodge Demon in competition. He enjoyed four-wheeling through the Black Hills.

Friends weren't surprised Gukeisen took risks to help an injured child.

''That would fit him to a T,'' said Chris Blair.

CHRISTIAN D. GURTNER

Age: 19

Rank: Private 1st Class, 3rd Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, 1st Marine Division

Hometown: Ohio City, Ohio

Christian Gurtner was preparing to be a Marine even before he became a Marine.

Van Wert High School coach Jeff Hood said Gurtner took his strength-training course senior year to prepare for the service.

''It's not an easy course because it involves four days a week of weightlifting, cardiovascular work and other things,'' he said. ''You've got to be really devoted to want to get into it.''

Gurtner was killed during combat operations April 2 in southern Iraq when his own weapon discharged accidentally and hit him.

Gurtner, who graduated from Van Wert High in June, was single and had a 2-month-old daughter.

''The one thing that was very clear was that Christian was doing exactly what he wanted to do,'' said Van Wert schools Superintendent Cathy Hoffman, after visiting Gurtner's parents. He wanted to fight for the United States.''

JOSE GUTIERREZ

Age: 22

Rank: Lance corporal, 2nd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division

Hometown: Guatemala City, Guatemala

José Gutiérrez came to the United States from Guatemala alone at the age of 16 and was taken in as a foster son by an Ecuadoran immigrant, Marcelo Mosquera, and his Costa Rican wife, Nora. The family lives in Lomita, 25 miles south of Los Angeles.

Gutiérrez attended North High School in Torrance and Harbor College. He wanted to become an architect but postponed his plans so he could join the Marines.

Last September, Gutiérrez became a Marine infantry rifleman.

''Ask God to take care of me,'' he told his sister, Engracia Ciríín, by phone before departing for the Middle East. She lives in Guatemala City.

On March 21, he was killed in action near the port city of Umm Kasr, in southern Iraq.

Ciríín, his only relative in Guatemala, has asked that his body be returned to his native country for burial. Marines from the U.S. Embassy in Guatemala City will provide an honor guard at the service.

ERIK A. HALVORSEN

Age: 40

Rank: Chief Warrant Officer, 2nd Battalion, 3rd Aviation Regiment

Hometown: Bennington, Vt.

Erik Halvorsen was a quiet, reflective man - and a ''neatnik'' who would clean out the air vents of his cherished Toyota Celica with a toothbrush.

''He took care of it like a baby,'' said a former girlfriend, Yvette McCormack.

Halvorsen was killed April 2 when his UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter crashed during combat near Karbala, Iraq.

Halvorsen was co-captain of the Mount Anthony Union High School soccer team. He played center-fullback, a defensive position.

''He was a quiet leader,'' said then-teammate Scott Legacy. ''You always put your strong people in the middle. The position went along with his character.''

Halvorsen graduated from Mount Anthony Union in 1981. He joined the Army after earning a bachelor's degree in electronic engineering at the University of Hartford in 1986. He was divorced.

In his last letter to his mother, written in Kuwait just before the war started, Halvorsen expressed hope for a peaceful resolution of the conflict with Iraq.

Hemingway was killed April 10 in a car bomb attack in Baghdad.

Hemingway enlisted after graduating from Trenton Central High School in 1981. After four years in civilian life, he re-enlisted in 1987, and served in Germany, Panama and Korea.

Hemingway and his wife Darlene had three children, Terry Jr., 11, Venetia, 9, and Danisha, 7.

Age: 22

Rank: Sergeant, 2nd Marine Expeditionary Brigade

Hometown: Smithville, Mo.

Nicolas Hodson liked to return to Smithville High in his Marine uniform to tell students to take advantage of the opportunities they had in high school. Hodson, 22, played basketball and ran track for the namesake high school of Smithville, Mo., a suburb of Kansas City. He graduated in 1999.

The sergeant, 6 feet 2 inches, looked ''like a marathoner,'' said James Horton, his former basketball coach at the school.

Hodson was killed March 22 in a vehicle accident in Iraq.

Smithville High's principal, Wayne Krueger, described Hodson as ''the kind of kid that everyone knew and liked.''

Hodson's mother died of cancer last fall, Krueger said, adding that he believed that she was a single parent.

Hodson leaves a twin sister, Nicole; sons Braden, 2, and Marius, 1; and girlfriend Michelle Smith, Braden's mother. His mother died of cancer last fall.

''He was so proud of being a Marine, of serving his country,'' said Nicole Hodson. ''He passed doing what he loved to do. He was kind-hearted and loved to tell people what to do.''

The Pentagon has not released details of the accident that killed Hodson.

Lincoln Hollinsaid was an avid outdoorsman with a knack for telling uproariously entertaining fish tales.

''Linc had some of the greatest fishing stories that could be told if you had the time,'' said his father, Dan Hollinsaid. ''He had one story that covered four days, and it took an hour from start to finish to tell it.''

Hollinsaid was killed April 7 near the airport in Baghdad, Iraq, when a rocket-propelled grenade struck the crane he was driving.

Hollinsaid graduated from Princeton High School in 1993 and enlisted in 1995. He volunteered for service in the Persian Gulf.

He once considered attending college to become an officer, but felt that would put too much distance between himself and the soldiers, his father said.

''He didn't want to lose that personal contact with the people around him.'' Dan Hollinsaid said.

Hollinsaid loved hunting, fishing and driving his four-wheel-drive GMC through the California mountains.

NOLEN R. HUTCHINGS

Age: 19

Rank: Private, 1st Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Expeditionary Brigade

Hometown: Boiling Springs, N.C.

Nolen Hutchings had problems as a young man, but through the Marines and the church, he was turning his life around.

''Typical problems, typical kid,'' said his adoptive father, Larry Hutchings. ''But when he did get into trouble, he settled his own mistakes.''

Hutchings was killed during combat March 23 near Nasiriyah, Iraq, when a coalition jet mistakenly attacked his unit.

While still in high school, Hutchings was arrested for trespassing and petty larceny. As a sophomore, he joined a youth group at Northbrook Baptist Church, though his personal struggles continued.

Hutchings enlisted after graduating from Boiling Springs High School in 2000. His former teachers said he often returned to campus in uniform to praise the Corps, and seemed leaner, happier, and prouder than ever.

GREGORY P. HUXLEY

Age: 19

Rank: Private 1st Class, B Company, 3rd Battalion, 17th Engineer Battalion,

Hometown: Forestport, N.Y.

Putting on the Army uniform transformed Gregory Huxley from the boy people in this central New York town knew as ''Greggy'' into a confident young man.

''He was well-suited for the military,'' said his former football coach Mike Millich said. ''He didn't mind discipline. He followed orders. And he was a proud young man.''

Huxley was killed by enemy fire April 6 in Iraq.

Huxley played football through his junior year at Adirondack Central High School, then opted out senior year because he felt he should get a job. He graduated in June.

Danielle Scholl, Huxley's girlfriend, presented his last letter to her to his parents at his funeral.

''She got her first love letter from Greg, and that was nice,'' said her mother, Rose Scholl. ''He was going to get his car, and they were going to go out, and they were going to have a date.''
