The funeral procession for Senior Patrol Agent Hector Clark and Lead Border Patrol Agent Eduardo Rojas Jr. passes 22nd Street on Avenue A on the way to Desert Lawn Memorial Cemetary.
In a day of remembrance, the U.S. Border Patrol laid to rest two of their own Friday afternoon in a joint funeral service for agents Hector Clark and Eduardo Rojas, Jr., who were both killed in the line of duty last week.
The memorial service for Agent Rojas and Agent Clark begins as an honor guard of fellow Border Patrol Agents stand at attention while the two caskets are taken inside.
A ceremony was held in May to honor fallen Border Patrol agents. The family of the most recent loss, Senior Patrol Agent Luis Aguilar, was presented with plaques from the Military Order of the Purple Heart. Video by Terry Ketron/TheSun
