About

A Hero in His Son's Eyes

Working odd jobs and barely making ends meet, Michael T. Manibog was frustrated with the direction his life was heading and wanted to provide more for his 9-year-old son. After a heart-to-heart talk with his older sister a few years ago, he decided to join the Army.

Manibog, a 1996 graduate of San Leandro High School in California, deployed to Iraq for the first time in December. Two months later, he was killed in an explosion in Taji.

In addition to his son and sister, Manibog is survived by his parents, two half sisters and two half brothers.
