The 8th Saipan and Northern Islands Municipal Council recently adopted a resolution commending U.S. Army Sgt. Ryan Karl Seman Camacho “for his bravery, courage and determination to uphold the United States Armed Forces’ goal to secure peace, freedom, and democracy in Iraq.”
Camacho enlisted in the U.S. Army on Aug. 31, 1999, and was assigned to the E Company 100th Battalion 442nd Infantry, Saipan. Camacho was deployed to Iraq in January 2005, where he became part of the 11B20 Infantry.
Camacho’s parents are Francisco Blanco Camacho and Connie Seman Camacho and he is married to Koreen Dlg. Camacho. The couple is blessed with three children—Deon, Ryanne Lynn, and Carlas Joaquin.
The resolution concluded by saying that the members of the Municipal Council join the people of the CNMI in extending special recognition, congratulation, and commendation to Camacho for safeguarding and protecting the lives of his fellow Americans.
“Further, the members of the Council and the people of the CNMI join the family members in their prayers to our almighty Lord to Iraq, Afghanistan, and other dangerous posts eternal safety, security and successful mission in securing global peace, freedom, and democracy for all races and ages,” part of the resolution reads.
The resolution was certified by chair Gregorio V. Deleon Guerrero and vice chair David A. Indalecio and attested by secretary Antonia M. Tudela.
