Marine Staff Sgt Daniel Hansen died February 14th, 2009 in Farah Providence, Afghanistan when an IED he was working on detonated.   Daniel is survived by his mother Sheryll, his father Delbert, his younger sister Katie, and his twin brother Matthew (also a Marine).

L.A. Times:  SGT Dan. T Henderson said,    “I attended and graduated Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) School with SSG Hansen. He was always a good Marine and an even better man. Trust me when I say there was no finer Marine. If there are words to describe SSG Hansen they would have to be selfless service, holding American Values and safety higher than his own. America lost a true hero with the death of this fine young Marine. His personality, smile, and diamond quality attributes brought him respect from everyone he knew, especially me. He lived and breathed to serve, giving the ultimate sacrifice serving the country he so dearly loved. He may have passed but he will never be forgotten, his legacy will be left with the lives of those who he touched and to a country with the deepest of gratitude. I am not speaking only for myself when we say; SSG HANSEN WE WILL MISS YOU AND YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!”

This “Hansen” Hero WOD was first posted on the CrossFit Main Site as the workout of the day for Saturday, May 2, 2009 (090502).
