'I love my job': US Marine posted moving photo of herself with an Afghan child just days before she was killed

The Lance Corporal, 20, is survived by his parents and three siblings, who were described by family friend Paul Arreola as"heartbroken".

He had sent videos to his family hours before his death of his interactions with Afghan children, telling one of them:"All right, we're heroes now, man."The 20-year-old Marine Lance Corporal grew up in St Louis and his father was told of his death when Marines came to his home in Wentzville, Missouri, in the early hours of Friday.

The 22-year-old from California worked with the sheriff's department for three years before joining the Marines in 2017, according to Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco. "Our entire department is mourning this tragic loss. The Lopez family exemplifies the meaning of service above self."The Lance Corporal, 20, was from Texas, and his death was confirmed by Congressman Henry Cuellar.

Johanny Rosario, 25, served with the Naval Amphibious Force, Task Force 51/5th Marine Expeditionary Brigade, as supply chief.

God took you too soon. Rest in peace his angel ❤️

It's so sad 😞

RIP beautiful lady

With a soul to feel it is heartbreak. Because there is no sence of what happen. All to be better for what happen. 🖐❤

It is so sad reading about the young military personnel who died after the suicide bombing. They had their whole lives ahead of them. Amazing job they did and will forever be remembered as heroes their families can be proud of. War is a horrible thing.

Thank you😞🇺🇸

Heartbreaking 💔 RIP

So heart breaking

That’s war

It would be better if the United States blew up the weapon instead of leaving it as a gift to the Taliban terrorists. Baiden shouldn't be president

YOU HAVE BETRAYED ALL YOUR ALLIES NO ONE WILL TRUST USA AGAIN YOU LEFT THE SIVS BEHIND YOU LEFT ALL THOSE WHO TRUSTED YOU, BELIEVED YOU WERE GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THEM. WE WERE STAYING HOME & WAITING FOR YOU TO TELL US WHEN TO COME, WHERE TO COME BECAUSE YOU TOLD US NOT TO COME

Rest in peace.

white__lemons And what about the hundreds or maybe thousands of unarmed civilians killed by such jarheads 🥴

BlairBrandt Horrible

Xxx

Semper Fidelis!

How many Afghans photos could you find ?

Just an American soldier, no big deal.

So sad

Rip. True Feminist

Most of the Americans who died were in their early 20s. They were there trying to help a situation that started when they were born. What a waste of human life. The poor families having to grieve.

im sorry for her loss

Why good poeple must die for bastards?

Heartbreaking 💔

Heartbroken 💔

R.I.P. for her.

These are spectacular speeches and pictures. In fact, they were oppressive occupiers and terrorists

Fear is conditioned into us from young age..

RIP HERO

thanks

Too bad 😒💔
