PERIDOT DISTRICT, SAN CARLOS APACHE INDIAN RESERVATION, Arizona — A platoon of U.S. Marines with 3rd Light Armored Reconnaissance (LAR) Battalion, 1st Marine Division, participated in a dedication ceremony of the Michael A. Noline Community building, honoring Pfc. Michael A. Noline, a fallen member of their battalion at the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation in Arizona, May 14, 2022.
Noline, a member of the San Carlos Apache Tribe, served as a light armored vehicle (LAV), crewman for 3rd Light Armored Infantry Battalion from 1990 to 1991. Noline deployed with the battalion in support of Operation Desert Storm and was killed in action on January 26, 1991.
“Coming here to help dedicate this building to the name of Pfc. Noline, it’s a realization of how real this stuff is,” said Sgt. Brandon D. Tranum, the color sergeant for 3rd LAR Battalion. “You see everyone getting emotional in the audience because this is super real to them.”
“I feel humbled to be here.”
