c/po3 Brenton Buckmaster Memorial

Cadet Petty Officer Third Class Brenton Buckmaster loved being a cadet and was one day going to join the Marine Corps, like his Uncle.  Brenton's awards consist of the Distinguished Unit Ribbon, the Unit Achievement Ribbon, the Exemplary Conduct Ribbon, the Exemplary Personal Appearance Ribbon, the Participation Ribbon with two bronze stars in lieu of 3rd award, the Unit Service Ribbon, and the Summer Camp ribbon.  Brenton was posthumously promoted to Cadet Petty Officer 3rd Class.  Cadet Buckmaster tragically passed away Thursday, March 5th, 2009 as a result of a firearm accident.  Brenton was a wonderful person, a good friend to those who knew him, and a great Cadet within our NJROTC Unit.  Our thoughts and prayers continue to go out to his family.
