“Michael Mahr and Joshua Gire died when our RCP was attacked in Logar Province, Afghanistan on Route New York South. Nothing can be done to change what happened and bring them back no matter how hard we wished it so. PFC Michael Mahr took my place in 1-1 because his skill far exceeded mine as lead driver. SSG Joshua Gire was perhaps the finest NCO any of us have ever met. The love they had for their fellow brothers in arms was unmatched by anyone. They lived and died as noble warriors leading the way from the front. True Engineers. We will keep you in our daily thoughts. Your sacrifice to us, and the United States of America will not be forgotten. If you’re in the Barracks, put this on your speakers and TURN IT THE FUCK UP! If you are at home and people are trying to sleep, put this on your speakers and TURN IT THE FUCK UP! For you, Brothers.”
