OLYMPIA, Wash. — The last song Command Sgt. Maj. Cornell Gilmore sang to the congregation at a Fort Lewis chapel was “Lord, Send Me, I’ll Go.”
The hymn was a favorite of Gilmore’s that spoke of his commitment to God and country. It was appropriate because Gilmore, who directed the male chorus at Four Chaplains Memorial Chapel, and his family were leaving Lacey for Baltimore and a new military assignment at the Pentagon.
“He was ready for anything that could have happened,” said Michelle Greene, who attended the church.
Gilmore’s voice was among six silenced when their UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter crashed in Iraq near Tikrit on Friday....
