Support for Kaitlyn and family After Tragic Loss
Kaitlyn, the Haynes family, and the Marine Corps have lost someone incredibly special—a devoted Marine, a soon-to-be father, and a loving husband. He was known for his hard work, his infectious smile, and his ability to bring laughter to any room. His charisma and personality brightened the lives of everyone he met, and his absence leaves a profound void in the hearts of his family, friends, and community.
This was a sudden loss, and your generosity can help ease the burden of living expenses during this difficult time. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference for Kaitlyn and their soon to be baby girl as they navigate this new chapter.
Please consider donating to help Kaitlyn and their soon to be baby girl, and to honor the loss felt by everyone who knew him. Your kindness and support will provide comfort and hope to a family and community who have given so much. Thank you for standing with them in their time of need.

A drill instructor from Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island was discovered deceased in a hotel room in Starke, Florida, on May 30. The Marine Corps confirmed the identity of the individual as Sgt. Albert Haynes II, aged 24, who was in Florida to participate in a poolee function organized by U.S. Marine Corps Recruiting Station-Jacksonville.
The circumstances surrounding his death are currently the subject of an investigation led by the Bradford County Sheriff’s Department. Haynes hailed from Austin, Pennsylvania, and was an active member of Lima Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion at the time of his passing.
Enlisting in the Marine Corps as an 0811 Field Artillery Cannoneer, Haynes completed the Field Artillery Basic Course at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, following his graduation from both recruit training and Marine Combat Training. His service record reflects a commitment to duty and excellence, highlighted by multiple accolades, including the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal (with a gold star in lieu of a second award), the Marine Corps Good Conduct Medal, and the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal.
Haynes also earned the Sea Service Deployment Ribbon (with two bronze stars in lieu of a third award) and the National Defense Service Medal, underscoring his contributions to the Marine Corps and his country. As the investigation unfolds, the Marine Corps community mourns the loss of a dedicated service member whose life ended tragically.
