Marine Lance Cpl. Geurin was assigned to the 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, Twenty-nine Palms, California. Geurin was standing guard on a palace roof in Babylon, Iraq when he fell approximately 60 feet (under investigation). Cory was the captain and most valuable player of the wrestling team during his senior year at West Hills High School. He decided to become a Marine after the World Trade Center was destroyed. A week after the attack he said, "Mom, they're messing with my country, and I won't let it happen." He signed his enlistment papers two months after the terrorist attacks and before he finished high school. Cory called home the morning of his death to say he planned to stay in the Marines after his tour in Iraq. He believed in what he was doing. He was a leader.
