A Marine pays his respects during a memorial ceremony for Staff Sgt. Andrew Stevens, a bulk fuel specialist with 8th Engineer Support Battalion, at the Protestant Chapel aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, Jan. 23. To end the ceremony, role was called three times, only to be answered by silence. “Taps” was played and one by one the Marines exited the pews and kneeled beside Stevens’ boots and Kevlar to pay their final respects.
