Profile

There was the warrior side of Colin, the 14-year-old who saw what happened Sept. 11, 2001, and decided that he wanted to be a Marine, and the 19-year-old pickup driver who left for Iraq in July. And then there was the side that Colin didn't really talk about but that many in Manassas knew, the ballet dancer. The boy capable of pirouettes and graceful leaps who grew into a teenager able to guide his dance partners with poise. He was talented. At some level, he took pride in it. Colin was a typical teenager interested in soccer, football and girls but that there was also a strong pull in him toward the Marines, a pull that intensified after the Sept. 11 attacks. He was doing what he wanted to do, and he was believing in what he was doing.
  • Service/branch: Marine Corps
