The family of
Cpl. Shayan Eftekhar has requested the Patriot Guard Riders be present to honor this hero for his service to his country. It will be our privilege to do so.
Cpl. Eftekhar, 21, served his country proudly in the United States Marine Corps. He was a member of 3rd Amphibious Assault Battalion, 1st Marine Division, Camp Pendleton, California where he served honorably as an Amphibious Assault Vehicle Crewman. Cpl. Eftekhar passed due to injuries he sustained in a non-combat related motor vehicle accident near Camp Pendleton.
