Joshua Cullins

Los Angeles Police Department Officer and U.S. Marine Joshua Cullins died on Oct. 18, 2010, while serving in Afghanistan.  

Joshua Cullins, who before departing for Afghanistan was working in Central Division, was 28. He died when his unit was investigating an IED explosion and a secondary bomb detonated.

He was serving his second tour of duty as an explosive ordnance disposal technician with the First Marine Logistics Group, First Explosive Ordnance Disposal Company, 2nd Battalion and 9th Marine Regiment in Marja in Afghanistan’s treacherous Helmand province.

Prior to the October incident, Joshua Cullins suffered a concussion related to an IED explosion in July.

Let us pray to God the Father, Jesus, all of the saints and all of the angels that Joshua Cullins is in heaven. Let us pray that he is at peace and is with God. Amen
