gate now, i have u.s. marines ready for you. he sent back a picture writing, stay there, do you see the marine. but before they could reach his friend, the bomb went off. he and his wife were killed. his two young sons were further back with a relative. they survived. darlington s marine friend was injured, but was later safely evacuated and over the weekend arrived at walter reed for treatment. joining me is andrew darlingtonwho served in afghanistan and is a purple heart recipient. andrew, this is heartbreaking, obviously. i don t know how to convey our condolences. tell us about his family, your relationship to them and how the boys are doing. sure. thanks for having me. i first met him in 2012. i was deployed with first battalion marine regimen. at the time he was not my interpreter. i just got to know him.
