About Jordan Haerter
Jordan Haerter grew up in the small village of Sag Harbor, NY, and graduated from Pierson High School in 2006. He went to Parris Island for the 12-week boot camp as a recruit in September 2006 and became a proud United States Marine on December 1st, 2006. He was assigned in fleet with 1st Battalion, 9th Marines, and deployed to Ramadi, Iraq, in March of 2008. LCpl Jordan C. Haerter, alongside Cpl. Jonathan T.

They stopped an explosive-laden suicide tank truck from entering the compound with precision firing, which resulted in their sacrifice saving the lives of 33 Marines, Iraqi policemen, and countless Iraqi civilians.
