N.C.-based Marine killed during second Iraq tour

Associated Press

VINELAND, N.J. — A North Carolina-based Marine due to come home next week on leave from Iraq was killed Monday, his father said.

Lance Cpl. Harry Swain IV, 21, who was serving his second tour of duty in Iraq, last had an online conversation with his father Saturday. Two days later, Vineland Police Sgt. Harry Swain III received an ominous cell phone call from two Marines.

“They said they were standing outside, and I told them I had moved,” he told The Press of Atlantic City for Tuesday’s editions.

Just an hour earlier he had watched a television news story about the Marine deaths.

Swain’s younger son, 19-year-old Jaymes, also is serving in Iraq. The father said he wanted Jaymes to leave the combat zone now that Harry has been killed.

  Harry has been on the minds of many for his brave actions.. This summer we plan to visit his memorial

garden that his grandmothe, Carolr (my cousin) so lovingly created in his memory. Maybe she will try to squeeze in a couple of plants we'd like to donate in his memory, too.


Harry and his family are thought of more than they will ever know. Our condolences go out to all Harry's family and friends.

  Son, I Miss You every day. There is not a moment I don't think of you. Sometimes, the tears just roll down my face. I will never forget how you made us smile, and laugh. The last Father & Son thing we did before you left for Iraq, was crabbing. We caught and cooked alot of crabs that day. We talked and laughed, even when you accidently dented my trucks tailgate. Material things don't mean anything. All I wanted is you to come home, and enjoy special moments like that again. You were not only my Son, but my best friend. You gave me advice on life, way beyond your years. I lost a part of my heart that will never mend. I am and always will be the proudest Father in the world to have You and Jay as my Son's. Your Brother always looked up to you, and you are in his heart always. Your Sister Morgan told me that we are still the four Musketeers, and will always be in her heart. I told her that not that many people in life ever know about a hero, not many meet a hero, but you have a hero for a Brother. God bless you, and hold you in his Loving arms. You will always be Daddy's Big Boy even though you grew into a fine young brave man. Love Always and Forever, Your Dad....Harry R. Swain III

Jose Ricardo Flores-Mejia

It's been 20 years since your passing... However, I never forgotten the day you told me I am married, I am going to have a baby, and day your son was born... You touched some many lives in different ways in your brief time on this earth in ways others can't imagine... Some people can be given a life time on this earth and accomplish nothing, and there are some people who are given a short time and accomplish so much... You Mr. Flores-Mejia aka Ricky was that person and soldier who accomplish so much in your shoft tme... As I see the days pass by, and the war seems to be a distant memory, your memory is still alive in my life, and still on this and like other days with my grandchildren I sit back like we did many times and listen to those West Coast oldies... "Never Forgotten"


Frank E. Adamski III

To the family of Frank Adamski, including his wife and daughter, my sincere condolences. I plan to make sure he is never forgotten.

Laurie Cobb

She was my 3rd and 5th grade teacher. Today I'm 32 and still think about her. She was the best teacher ever. From her hair children stories to her bubbly happiness and kindness she spread. I'll never forget her. She was the teacher who had lunch with the kids in her classroom so everyone had someone to be with. She made my school experience amazing. I will never forget her.. I love you Mrs. Cobb. Sincerely, Forever in my thoughts, Alyssa (Viau) Capone


Larry E Polley Jr

SPC Polley died almost two decades ago so I don't know if this message will be seen. In honor of Memorial Day, my agency hands out cards with names of those who have fallen. This year, 2023, I received the card for SPC Polley and was inspired to look up more on him. I am thankful for his service and sacrifice. My condolences to his family. He is not forgotten.


Paul C. Holter III

Miss you brother


Alex D Gonzalez

Love you and miss you always. Since you been gone it has been hard for everyone. I know you loved what you did, and I want to thank you for our freedom. If I can have you back home and safe living your life man everything would be different. No matter how much money they would offer me I would rather have you alive and home. Money comes and go so it's not worth losing you.


Christopher D Young

hello my name is Jesus Vega I would like to give my condolences to Christopher's family and friends, I served with him in Iraq and slept in the same quarters. I have many fond memories of him. I have never forgotten his sacrifice. I would like to share that the greatest memory I had of Chris is that he would speak highly of his mom and how much she meant to him. Chris was a strong minded person and looked out for other. He was kind and friendly the he made friends with everyone. Chris was truly a great man! I sincerely apologize for not sharing sooner. but would like to express that Chris's memory will never be forgotten! though he is not with us he will always be in spirit! If this message gets to Christopher's mother I she could know she raised a great man and for that I thank you.

James David Parker

I knew James David Parker as "Dave" when he lived in Solon Ohio. We met when I moved into town from out of state. He and his group of friends were a year or two older than me. Dave was a bright beacon of hope and joy to me. I was an unsure young man in a strange place. Dave introduced me to many people and ensured his friends always saved me a seat in the lunchroom. I have fond memories of him and his friends during that time. I doubt so many people would have been as wonderful toward me without Dave's incredible kindness. I've never forgotten his kindness. I hope to be able to pay it forward someday.
