My brother left the 1433 shortly after rumors came up they were going to deploy, considering he became a father at that time, this kind of startles me. His platoon was in the process of being formed so members were frequently deployed with the sister units. At least twice he volunteered to go early with the sister units but was told to wait until the 1433rd as a whole was ready.

Rest in peace Sapper.
