Despite WBAL.com’s headline that a Maryland “Soldier” was killed in Afghanistan, the below excerpt from their piece is about a Marine:

The Pentagon says a Marine from Maryland has been killed while supporting combat operations in Afghanistan.

Twenty-six-year-old Sgt. Charles I. Cartwright of Union Bridge died Saturday in Farah province in Afghanistan.

Cartwright was assigned to the 1st Marine Special Operations Battalion, U.S. Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command, Camp Pendleton, California.
