He was with the 3rd Squadron, 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment, 2nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 1st Armored Division. Gaul graduated from Ranger School in December 2006 and was very proud to be an Army Ranger. “Sean loved his job, knowing the risks he re-enlisted during his fifth deployment,” his wife, Jessica, said in a statement. “It seemed Sean was a lifer for sure. He did not waiver from his responsibility. He always trained hard and he led the way by example.” Gaul loved martial arts and many outdoor activities, including fishing, scuba diving and training for triathlons. Staff Sergeant Gaul made the ultimate sacrifice on January 9, 2008 at age 29.
