?One Punch Gerry? was the nickname fellow Philadelphia police officers gave Gennaro Pellegrini Jr. after he famously knocked out a violent suspect with just one blow.
?There?s a kid that never gave up,? said Frank Talent, of the Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission, who watched Pellegrini, an amateur welterweight, win his first professional fight last year.
?He had heart to the end.?
Pellegrini, 31, of Philadelphia, died Aug. 9 in Bayji from a mine explosion and small-arms fire. He was the first Philadelphia police officer killed in the Iraq war. The son of a cop, Pellegrini joined the department in 2001 and
inherited his father?s badge number, 3722. While in Iraq, he convinced schoolchildren to collect 350 pairs of flip-flops for Iraqi children.
He is survived by his parents, Edith and Gennaro Pellegrini Sr.
If only Pellegrini had been allowed to fight his enemies where he preferred to ? in the ring, said cousin Jerry Wahl.
?My uncle said, ?It?s a shame he couldn?t have gone over there and fought one on one, hand-to-hand combat,? said Wahl. ?Then he would have taken care of business, and we wouldn?t be here right now.?

Aaron H. Reed was many things to many people. He was the boy who never gave up on the track team. He was the one who taught his friend how to drive a standard truck. A man that friends said would make a great father someday. All who knew him recalled his smile and his laugh. They remembered when he laughed he would push his glasses up. Nearly every photo of Reed, with the exception of his military picture, shows his trademark grin.
?He was always somebody who could make you smile,? said Billie Baxter, a friend. ?And he was always really talkative.?
Reed, 21, of Chillicothe, Ohio, died Aug. 3 when his vehicle was hit by an explosive south of Haditha. He was stationed at Columbus.
Reed, a 2001 high school graduate, was a popular student who ran on the track and cross country teams and was senior class president.
?He was a great cook,? recalled friend Abbey Coates.
?Especially breakfast ? eggs, bacon, sausage and gravy, biscuits, and he used garlic in everything. Then he left his mess for us to clean up,? she said with a laugh.
He is survived by his father, Stephen, and mother, Sara Duvall.

Gary L. Reese always found ways to have fun, even while bagging groceries.
?There were certain customers who would come every week. He?d mess with them and hide their carts, as a joke,? said Sam Waldron, who worked with him in high school. ?He was kind of a prankster, but always in a good way. He could make a bad situation better.?
Reese, 22, of Ashland City, Tenn., died Aug. 14 from wounds sustained the previous day in Tuz. He was based in McMinnville,
Tenn. Reese was an only child who joined the National Guard about a month after graduating high school in 2001.
?He came out of nowhere with it and wanted to join. I think it was a good thing for him. I think it helped him to grow and blossom
into a fine young man,? said his father, Gary.
Retired 1st Sgt. Charles Douglas said Reese turned out to be one of the best recruits, ?young and full of vinegar.?
He is also survived by his mother, Cathy. ?He lived life to the fullest while he was here,? said his Spanish teacher, Jean Hill. ?I just think he had an unlimited future, and it saddens me that it was cut short.?

?One Punch Gerry? was the nickname fellow Philadelphia police officers gave Gennaro Pellegrini Jr. after he famously knocked out a violent suspect with just one blow.
?There?s a kid that never gave up,? said Frank Talent, of the Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission, who watched Pellegrini, an amateur welterweight, win his first professional fight last year.
?He had heart to the end.?
Pellegrini, 31, of Philadelphia, died Aug. 9 in Bayji from a mine explosion and small-arms fire. He was the first Philadelphia police officer killed in the Iraq war. The son of a cop, Pellegrini joined the department in 2001 and
inherited his father?s badge number, 3722. While in Iraq, he convinced schoolchildren to collect 350 pairs of flip-flops for Iraqi children.
He is survived by his parents, Edith and Gennaro Pellegrini Sr.
If only Pellegrini had been allowed to fight his enemies where he preferred to ? in the ring, said cousin Jerry Wahl.
?My uncle said, ?It?s a shame he couldn?t have gone over there and fought one on one, hand-to-hand combat,? said Wahl. ?Then he would have taken care of business, and we wouldn?t be here right now.?

Aaron H. Reed was many things to many people. He was the boy who never gave up on the track team. He was the one who taught his friend how to drive a standard truck. A man that friends said would make a great father someday. All who knew him recalled his smile and his laugh. They remembered when he laughed he would push his glasses up. Nearly every photo of Reed, with the exception of his military picture, shows his trademark grin.
?He was always somebody who could make you smile,? said Billie Baxter, a friend. ?And he was always really talkative.?
Reed, 21, of Chillicothe, Ohio, died Aug. 3 when his vehicle was hit by an explosive south of Haditha. He was stationed at Columbus.
Reed, a 2001 high school graduate, was a popular student who ran on the track and cross country teams and was senior class president.
?He was a great cook,? recalled friend Abbey Coates.
?Especially breakfast ? eggs, bacon, sausage and gravy, biscuits, and he used garlic in everything. Then he left his mess for us to clean up,? she said with a laugh.
He is survived by his father, Stephen, and mother, Sara Duvall.
