| 03 January 2012 Sgt Corey Cativera I met Adam after boot camp when we were both going through school of infantry, we became friends then, I remember like it was yesterday the 1st time we spoke, we were outside the armory getting our weapons for the course. Ever since that day we were friends, we ended up in the 3/2 together and roommates, we went to his home quite a few times and I met his grandfather and grandfather, I always had a great time going with him, which is probably why I didn't get mad at him when we got hit by a off duty WV state trooper, I was deployed with him to Iraq and was with him about everyday, when he passed it was a shock , it was hard to believe, now it's like everyday something reminds me of him, I were this reminder on my arm......it keeps me in reality of what can happen to the marines that I now lead, and it reminds me in a blink of a eye it can all be taken away..... RIP Adam, never forgotten 22 August 2010 Eric Elder fmr Cpl/USMC Crumpler and I were rack mates for a short time in boot camp and then he was in the rack next to me for the duration of boot camp. We discussed what we were going to do and what we had done in the past. I was older at the time 23 yrs old, and he said I just feel like I can talk to you Elder, and talk we did. I heard of his passing shortly after it happened and I was still in the Corps. then but no one seemed to know much about anything. I am just sending this out to tell family and friends Crump is a good man, and I will ALWAYS, have him in my mind for the 13 weeks we trained together and the times and memories we shared.
