Just one day after one of their own went on a shooting rampage, killing four Marines in this close-knit Tennessee city, the community of Chattanooga came together Friday in remembrance and sadness.
A memorial service at Olivet Baptist Church was packed with those wanting to remember the victims and seek solace among neighbors.
Mayor Andy Berke told the congregation that he wished “everyone of you could have heard the tales” of the police officers who responded to the scene and “put their bodies between innocent lives” before “silencing the attacker.”
The mayor listed famous places where U.S. servicemen had died in battle — like Tripoli, Beirut, and Fallujah — and said, “We add one more: Chattanooga.”
