Master-at-arms first class, Jeffery Diaz, showed the world what a true service man looks like when he made the ultimate sacrifice in the service of others.


47-year-old Jeremy Diaz was a full-time Navy sailor stationed at the Pacific Missle Range Facility in Barking Sands, Hawaii.


On Saturday, November 22nd, Jeffrey was enjoying a day on the beach at Waiapua'a Bay when he noticed two children who were struggling in the high surf.


Without a moment of hesitation, Jeffrey disregarded his own safety and plunged head first into the rough waters. 


Thanks to the selfless efforts of Jeffrey, both children made it safely to shore. Sadly, Jeffrey did not. Jeffery began experiencing trouble while in the water and slipped from veiw in the blink of an eye. 


Emergency personnel would pull Jeffrey from the water a short time later. Life saving measures were administered on scene. Jeffrey was rushed to Kaua'i Veterans Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced deceased.


Rest in Peace Jeffrey.  You truly were an American Hero.
