Sgt Lucas P. Dresser

Good day to all. My name is Sergeant Dresser and I am representing the LogCom FIS for the Marine Corps here in Iraq. I can't express what it means to a Marine to know that people out there, with no idea who we are, support us and take time out of their days to express it. These are hard times we're going through for everyone, deployed or not, and every little thing counts.

Very Respectfully,
Sgt Dresser - USMC

"
I work w/ 4 directly, but our mission out here is split in 2 operations. We have 6 Marines total and roughly 20 civilians working together out here.  The civilians are just as big of an asset as the Marines. They take care of a lot of the busy work while we focus on the direct mission. "




Lucas is 23 years old and grew up in Tampa Florida. He has been in the Marine Corps 5 years now and is on his 3rd duty station of Albany Georgia. Lucas is very much into working out and will work to become a personal trainer for when he gets out of the Marines. This is Lucas' first deployment to Iraq and he is expected to be home Sept 07. He has 2 beautiful nephews from his older sister, they live in Gainesville.

"And I can’t wait to go home!!"






UPDATE:  Luke returned home in September 2007.  He was the race starter and guest of honor along with his girlfriend, Marine Sargeant Jennifer Chinchilla for the 3rd Annual Rhody's Run for the Troops held on October 7, 2007.  Here are Luke and Jenny with Pack It Up president, Kristin Struck.
