We lost the first Coast Guard Member killed in Combat since Vietnam.

Petty Officer 3rd Class Nathan B. Bruckenthal, 24, a damage controlman from Smithtown, N.Y

Smithtown is on Long Island New York where I am from.

4-26-2004 Coast Guard Member Killed in Iraq Attack

"He was honored to do anything the Coast Guard asked him," said Daniel Burgoyne, a friend and fellow petty officer. "He was a true patriot and he loved serving his country."

Bruckenthal was scheduled to return from his second stint in Iraq (news - web sites) in a month, Commander Glenn Grahl said. He had also served there from February to May last year, Grahl said.

Bruckenthal's wife is three months pregnant, friends and family members said.

"We're all trying to get through this," said Bruckenthal's uncle, Steven Bruckenthal, of Millwood, N.Y. "It's been a shock from his 83-year-old grandfather, to his mother and father to his sister to his wife. He has a very large family."
---------------------------------------------

All Coast Guard bases were running flags at half mast last week.

Bruchenthal was working on interdiction in the Gulf.
