Eden Pearl, after a six-year battle with his injuries, TBI and burns over 90% of his body, has succumbed according to his family.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHe was there to go do battle, and he acted that way, and he trained that way, and he ran our team that way,\u201d Kinosh said. \u201cIt was definitely the most significant leadership experience I had while I was in the Marines, and I was in the Marines for 14 years. His combat leadership far surpasses anyone else I\u2019ve ever worked with. This guy was a master at gunfighting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>Pearl joined the Marine Corps in July 1994 from the town of Monroe, N.Y., before turning 19. After graduating from recruit training at Parris Island, S.C., he became an infantry rifleman, and then completed virtually every difficult form of training the service had, becoming a scout sniper, reconnaissance Marine, combat diver and critical skills operator in MARSOC. His training left him capable of performing anything \u2014 from free-fall aerial dives from airplanes to close-quarters combat after breaking down a door.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CB Senior sends us the sad news from MSN that Marine Gunnery Sgt.
