Private First Class(PFC) Jason “JJ” Hill Estopinal
Raised in Dallas Georgia, Graduated HS in 2007. Joined the Marine Corps in Jan 2009. Was assigned to 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marines Golf Company as an infantry rifleman and was deployed to Afghanistan by October 2009. In Afghanistan he served in Golf Co 3rd platoon, 4th squad and was the squads radio operator. Carrying the radio meant more weight, more work, and more knowledge of how the system operated. It wasn’t an easy job, and he did every bit of it with pride and dedication. Constantly trying to improve and learn as much as he could. We called him “Ears” because of his obvious massive ears but also because he was the squads “Ears”. He was a quiet, shy guy but humble and very hard working and always had an ear to ear smile.
February 15th 2010 we started a large scale house clearing mission that was going to take a few days, but half way through the first day, he would step on and IED and was killed. He served for just over a year before he was killed. (he was 21).
