Marine Capt. Armando Espinoza, FAC First LAR Gets DFC

"Espinoza, a helicopter pilot who flew five combat missions into Baghdad in April 2003, evacuating 28 wounded Marines and an Iraqi family of seven, has been awarded the military’s fourth highest combat award. The captain already has two Iraq tours under his belt. Last year, he returned to Iraq as the forward air controller for 1st Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion. The “Red Dragons,” meanwhile, are wrapping up a second deployment to Iraq and are expected to return home later this month."
