Requiem in pace, SFC Mark Boner.
May God comfort your family in their loss, and may we be worthy of your sacrifice.
Rest in Peace.
May God Bless you and your family during this tragic time. I will pray for you warrior.
When someone puts on the uniform, he or she takes risks. Thanks for serving, Soldier.
Routine training missions have claimed more of my shipmates than actual war. Fair winds and following seas, SFC Boner.
Once again reminding us that preparation for war can be as deadly as war at times.
Rest in peace, our condolences to your family and friends.
I knew Mark since 2013, right after I returned from my second trip to AFG. He was extremely smart and capable BN S4 NCO who was about getting Soldiers stuff as opposed to being a supply dickhead and saying “No” to every request. He was an AGR soldier who was on the rise and his passing will hurt the entire state and deprive us of a good leader who would have made a fine E8 or higher…
Rest well, SFC.
Rest in Peace, SFC Boner.
