I kind of treat them all like my sons. You get a bond, a friendship, a trust. When you lose one of your own, it hits you very hard. I had to go out walking for a couple of hours. I had to cool off.
— Sgt. David L. Morgan, commanding officer
Villanueva was almost killed in his first tour of Iraq when he was hit in the neck with shrapnel. According to Stars and Stripes, he was born in the Philippines and also served in Operation Desert Storm and in Kosovo.

Thank you.
My name is Andrew Scarduzio, and Sgt V was my sqaud leader until he was promoted to SFC. He was a good leader, and there are not many days where i dont think of him. He has had a lasting and positive impact on my life. I miss him
