I first met Big Legs when he was the 35 Team Leader. 35 and my Team, 25, had a friendly rivalry as SCUBA guys are wont to do. I got to know him better on the rotational staybehind prior to the war. I sure do miss that guy.

RIP sir. I never met Capt Tarlavsky but we were on QRF and on patrol the night he died, as we got the news over the net of his passing we were getting eyes on a weapons storage facility that doubled as a school in the day time. I remember that at the time U.S. forces in the area were all getting tasked with hitting outlying hideout points for Mahdi guys. From what we heard he was one courageous guy and he was desperately trying to lead the Iraqi assets into this building they did not want to go into. We all lost some good guys that month. Capt Tarlavsky example was an inspiration that was used to encourage and motivate many Marines in Najaf. I know this thread is old but I just wanted to let any of you QP's who knew him personally know that his sacrifice meant something to the Marines that were in Najaf at the time and that his memory as well as others were on our mind as we cleared Sadr out of Najaf at the end of that month. God Bless You sir. "He who sheds blood with me will forever me by brother" (I hope no one is offended by my saying that.)

Thanks for sharing your story.
It does mean something, and we are not offended.
