LtCol David Greene, USMCR '86 was killed in action on July 28, 2004 when he was struck by ground fire while piloting an attack helicopter in Anbar Province, Iraq.
David was a native of Camden, New York. The author of his Lucky Bag biography wrote, "Dave never confused his priorities, with academics running a cool last place."
He served on active duty until 1997, and was recalled in January 2004 to serve with Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron (HMLA) 775. As a civilian he was a project manager at BF Goodrich Aerospace in Vergennes, Vermont.
David was remembered as having "unassuming nobility," and a "humor, wit and a perpetual smile for all around him. He effortlessly enriched the lives of all with whom he came in contact."
He was survived by his wife Sarah, children Wesley and Jena, parents, two sisters and a brother.
