About 1st LT Jared M. Landaker Memorial Foundation

We sponsor military children to YMCA camps around the country for a week at no charge to the families.

The foundation was established on February 7, 2007 when the USMC Casevac helicopter flying with 7 crew members was shot down in Karmah, Iraq, killing all seven.

Morphine One Two will always be remembered and honored with every military child we sponsor to camp.

We Will Never Forget

Our Poem

On the seventh of February,
Seven stars fell from grace.
And the angels cried for seven days,
When they saved you from this place.
The duality of perfection, has never been so clear,
Then on that tragic day,
When we lost what we hold dear.
I can still see your face, it is as clear as stone,
And I can feel your presence here, when I am alone.
If we could all be a little like you,
There would be nothing left for us.
For we would have everything, and
We would live for what we love.
You were a savior, for you saved so many lives.
And you were a martyr, because you defended until you died.
And you were a hero, because you did what we could not.
And you were a champion, and you will never be forgot.
