“Sergeant Vargas Andrews is the embodiment of the core institutional values ​​of the United States Marine Corps of honor, courage and commitment. As a young man, he knew he wanted to be a US Marine and stuck with that vision. While stationed in Kabul, Afghanistan, he shared the experience of reuniting Afghan children with their families in a precarious and chaotic situation, which brought him great joy and made his mission worthwhile, ”said said Cameron Andrews, Tyler’s great-uncle.

Andrews is not only a native of Folsom, but he was an active member of the community before graduating from high school in 2016 and joining the Marine Corps in 2017. He was a talented and passionate baseball athlete and football, the latter of which he played in several junior leagues, high school teams and at Folsom Lake College.

Andrews is currently recovering from a left hip disarticulation and amputation above the right elbow, as well as multiple organ removal surgeries and severe internal damage.
