We honor and thank U.S. Army Special Forces Staff Sergeant Chris Falkel for defending our freedoms and fighting to liberate the lives of others.
Chris inspires us with this recollection from his childhood buddy and neighbor, Matthew Sahagun:
"Chris was a warrior," Sahagun said. "Since an early age he always had it in him. He was brave beyond belief and always by your side if you needed him."
