Sapper Steven Marshall, 24
"Steven will be remembered as the life of his section. He had an incredible sense of humour and a contagious grin that never left his face even in the most difficult of times," Brig.-Gen. Jonathan Vance said. "He would embrace every situation and always found and shared that silver lining with his mates."
Marshall joined the army a little over two years ago and was deployed with the 1st Battalion Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry Battle Group.
"Having arrived in the theatre of operations less than a week ago, he was eager to get out and begin making a difference," Vance said.
Dear Lord, we pray for a just and decisive end to this war and all other wars, lasting peace for all nations and the safe return home of all our loved ones.
Amen.
