This photo, taken by Eric Kayne of the Houston Chronicle, shows the casket of Cpl. Joshua Molina being transferred yesterday from St. Matthews Episcopal Church to Houston National Cemetery.
The Defense Department says Molina, 20, died March 27 in Baghdad of wounds he sustained when his vehicle was hit by an IED.

The Chronicle says the Texan was buried on what would have been his 21st birthday.

"Joshua Molina was a caring man," Guillermo Villegas, a cousin, tells KPRC-TV. "He believed in what he stand for and he served his country with much heart."
