We just learned of the devastating news that one of the Echelon, Justin McNeley, was found dead in Afghanistan after being MIA for a week. He was a loyal soldier, friend, and son, who will not be forgotten.
Justin made the below video for the THIS IS WAR project and I wanted to share it with you all, in his memory.
Our sincerest and deepest condolences to Justins’ family and friends.
Rest In Peace












I'm so sorry to hear this.

Made me thing more serious about the game we play here.
Sorry for the loss of people around him.
May his death not be in vain and his family find peace. Remember all those who died and those that face danger everyday. They fight for us everyday.
All of it left me speechless.
R.I.P
Rest in piece Justin<3 You're real hero and we will never forget you. Your video was amazing.
The video gave me chills. My thoughts and prayers to Justin's family. My step father was in the war and although he made it home without any physical scars, he does have other wounds that cannot be seen.
I thank God everyday for the men and women like Justin…We remain FREE because of them…Rest in PEACE, Dear, BRAVE Justin…thank you…
My thoughts are with Justin's Family and Friends.
He is in a place now where war doesn't exist. RIP Justin. Amazing video <3
i did not know Justin, like most of us, but I believe it was a great person, who did not leave this world at war. he died like a hero in our hearts. rest in peace Justin, we love you.
I pray for war 'll stop.
Condolences to Justins’ family and friends, god bless you.

I don't know what to say. I really cried watching that. My thoughts go out to his family and everyone who loved him. Including our love for him giving us , the ultimate sacrifice…his life. There are no words. I thought going through a divorce right now was my a big battle , watching this puts everything into prespective. R.I.P Justin….
Justin was my grandson, the most beautiful, wonderful grandson a person could have. he always had a smile and a kind word for everyone he met. He was a terrific son, father, brother, grandson . just everything a great person could be. My heart is bleeding and our lives will never be the same. The Angels shed tears at his funeral and the skies opened…he will never be forgotten. I love you Justin. Grandma Mary
Mary, I am so sorry for your loss. He looked like a wonderful man. We are proud of the sevice he gave to his country. Just know there is a whole community out here sending love to you and your whole family. He gave the ultimate sacrifice for us all, and we love him for that.
