Sunday, April 5th, 2020 - SGT Gary A. Eckert
Hometown: Toledo,
Ohio, U.S.
Age: 24
Died: May 08, 2005 in Operation Iraqi Freedom
The Patriot-News
While in Iraq, Gary "Andy" Eckert Jr.
asked female soldiers to show him how to braid hair so he would be able to
handle his daughter's when he returned home. "We're never going to let his
children forget who their daddy was," said Bret Howland, who said he thought
of Eckert as a son. "That's the goal from now on: to keep the spirit alive
of Andy Eckert." Eckert, 24, of Toledo, Ohio, was killed May 8 after an
explosive
detonated near his vehicle in Samarra. The reservist was based in Monclova,
Ohio. He is survived by his wife, Tiphany, daughter, Marlee, almost 2, and
newborn son, Miles. Eckert grew up in Whitehouse, Ohio, and graduated from
high school there. Although he was a huge University of Michigan fan, he
spent afternoons cheering for the Ohio State Buckeyes with his friends. In
his first tour in Iraq, Eckert sustained injuries for which he received the
Purple Heart. "Andy didn't have to go back to war. He came back a Purple
Heart recipient," said Brig. Gen. Michael Beasley. "He was someone who
taught us a whole lot about wearing a uniform, about being a father, about
being a husband, and about being an American."
