Reply #15: Rest in peace Jimmy [View All]

[DesertRat]

"The fiancée of a Long Island soldier killed in Iraq moved a thousand mourners to tears yesterday with her touching tribute at his funeral yesterday.

"Jimmy was a hero to many, but he was always very humble," Mary McHugh said of her beloved, 26-year-old Army Ranger Sgt. James (Jimmy) Regan of Manhasset. "He always sought team success and not personal glory."

Regan was to marry McHugh, a medical student at Emory University, when his Army service ended next February. He had served two tours in Afghanistan and was on his second tour in Iraq when he was killed Feb. 9 by a roadside bomb while on combat patrol in Baqubah."
