« "The Most Dangerous Place in Iraq" | Main | Announcement »

I Marine Expeditionary Force Public Affairs has posted a video tribute to Major Megan McClung. USA Today also features a prominent write-up:

A major who rejoined the Marines so she could go to Iraq has become the highest-ranking female servicemember to be killed in the war.

Megan McClung, a 1995 graduate of the Naval Academy, was remembered Tuesday by family and friends as having steel-like constitution. She was a triathlete who organized and ran a marathon in Iraq and competed in six Ironman competitions - running, swimming and bicycling - around the world.

They say that a person's legacy is reflected in the number of lives touched by his or her time on Earth. Given the quantity of google searches that wound up at INDC in the past few days, I'd say that McClung made a heck of an impression.
