Angels of God, pray
for Cyrille

He is a native of Dreux and has a 4 year old daughter. He joined the military in 2009 and had previously served in Gabon before arriving in Afghanistan in May of 2011.

Military officials described him as driven by an excellent spirit and that he had particularly distinguished himself at the commando training he had done in Gabon.

He was awarded the bronze medal of National Defence Button "airborne" and scheduled to be promoted to Corporal on July 1, 2011.

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