LOGAR PROVINCE, Afghanistan (4/13/2011) – U.S. Army Sgt. Keith T. Buzinski died as the result of an enemy attack, April 7. His comrades remembered Buzinski as a great soldier, true friend and loving family man.

Buzinski, a 26-year-old infantryman from Daytona Beach, Fla. was assigned to Company B, 2nd Battalion, 30th Infantry Regiment, 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division's Task Force Storm. Posthumously promoted to sergeant, Buzinski suffered fatal wounds during Operation Charkh Resolution in Logar province, when enemy forces conducted a complex attack against his unit involving rocket-propelled grenades, small-arms fire and grenades.

U.S. Army Pfc. Joshua Dumaine of Greensville, Tenn., said there is only one way to refer to his fallen comrade.

“If there was one word to describe ‘Buzz,' it would be warrior,” said Dumaine. “Buzz was one of the hardest workers in the platoon, and he will never be forgotten.”

Buzinski was one of the first people U.S. Army Pfc. James Spann met upon arriving to their unit, he recalled. The Carrollton, Ga., native Spann first referred to Buzinski using the rank of specialist and that ‘Buzz' did not particularly like being called specialist.

“He said, ‘Just call me Buzz,'” Carrollton said. “He was the perfect friend, husband and soldier. I will always keep him and his family in my prayers.”
The Raleigh, N.C., native, U.S. Army 1st Lt. Sean Cockrill said Buzinski was the very definition of his chosen profession. He said Buzinski will be missed but not forgotten.

“Sgt. Buzinski was the epitome of a soldier,” said Cockrill. “He loved his job, his fellow soldiers and his family. He is an inspiration to all of us and a true hero.”

Buzinski's awards and decorations include the following: Bronze Star Medal; Purple Heart Medal; Army Commendation Medal; Army Achievement Medal; Army Valorous Unit Award; Army Good Conduct Medal; National Defense Service Medal; Afghan Campaign Medal, with one campaign star; Iraq Campaign Medal, with one campaign star; Global War on Terror Service Medal; Army Service Ribbon; NATO Medal; Overseas Service Ribbon, with Numeral 2; Combat Infantryman Badge.
