It doesn't matter if you're black or white, yellow, purple or whatever, when you're in the military and you're wearing that uniform, we're all soldiers.
    — Sandra Rosales, widow and Army Sergeant

    Rosales was born in Mexico City. He and his wife joined the Army in 1995 and became citizens during their service. His wife was also serving in Iraq at the time he was killed and relatives were caring for their son.
