Marine Lance Cpl. Cedric E. Bruns

Died May 9, 2003 Serving During Operation Iraqi Freedom


22, of Vancouver, Wash.; assigned to 6th Engineer Support Battalion, 4th Force Service Support Group, Eugene, Ore.; killed in a non-hostile vehicle accident in Kuwait.

Cedric Bruns was a graduate of Prairie High School in Vancouver. He arrived in Kuwait in January for his first tour of duty overseas.

The Marine reservist died May 9 when the pickup truck he was driving collided with a logistics support vehicle, similar to a flatbed truck. Bruns was a combat engineer in a unit trained to do “anything from demolition to building,” said Gunnery Sgt. Rick Nelson.
