Remembering Sgt. Alex Fuller

Later this morning, the family of Army Sergeant Alex Fuller will bury him at the Massachusetts National Cemetery on Cape Cod.

The 21-year-old from Centerville had turned down a safer job as a radio operator to stay with his army buddies instead, on their dangerous patrols through Baghdad.

He died when a roadside bomb detonated near his vehicle on January 25th. WBUR's Curt Nickisch visited Fuller's family and has this story.

This program aired on February 6, 2007. The audio for this program is not available.
