SAN DIEGO — Carlos and Evelyn Baltierra have been going through their last memories they had with their son Bryan. He was one of the nine service members that died one year ago in a training exercise in San Clemente Island when an Amphibious Assault Vehicle or AAV sank 400 feet.
"They were done for the day, Bryan was so excited to go to all these countries," said Evelyn Baltierra.
