The family of
Sgt Steven Michael Cox, 26, has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be present to honor this hero for his service to his country. It will be our privilege to do so.
Steven Michael Cox of Milton, Florida, enlisted in the US Marine Corps in 2010. He was attached to MALS 11, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, and served as an Ammo Technician in Afghanistan.
This hero loved to ride his motorcycle and was riding last weekend when he crashed in north San Diego County. Sadly, he died of injuries sustained in that accident.
This hero’s family has asked that we accompany him as he begins his final journey home to the state of Florida.
