My good friend Cpl Joshua Ryan Ashley was KIA yesterday when his dog failed to find a deeply buried IED. He would have done anything for anyone whether he knew you or not and was always there to listen. He will be truly missed in the special ops community as well as the Marine Corps.

Re: RIP, Cpl Joshua Ryan AShley- USMC

I am very sorry for yours and the Marine Corps loss as we see another brother pass on way too soon. My son and nephew are in Afghanistan at the moment and my son had a friend killed by an IED a couple of weeks ago. I really hate seeing and hearing about this.

Semper Fi brother, may your life be celebrated, your loved ones watched over and may your death bring future generations of warriors lessons and knowlege.

I am sorry for your loss.
 
Re: RIP, Cpl Joshua Ryan AShley- USMC

I am not a weak man, but it saddens me to see good people die when they serve for a cause. Just being a Marine reflects highly of your friend. I am sorry for the lost life of your friend. I do know what that fells like and I wish things could be different.

UPDATE:

his body made it stateside today(late last night. Our Battalion is going to get a money fundraiser going to send to his family, and are inquiring on getting the MWD (survived) to his family since Josh had him as a puppy.
