SPC Eric T. Burri

I noticed this some time ago, but never did write anything on it:

Army Spc. Eric T. Burri, 21, of Wyoming, died June 7, 2005, when a primitive bomb exploded near his vehicle in Baghdad, Iraq. He was assigned to the 623rd Quartermaster Company, 1st Corps Support Command at Fort Bragg, N.C
.
No relation that I'm aware of - Burri is a Swiss name, and in Switzerland, I'm told, it's as common as Johnson is here.

Still, thought it was worth mentioning. Here's a tribute page.

And another one, this one with a picture.
