Marine dies hours after returning home from Iraq

Advertisements [?]

WEARE, N.H. -- Three hours after he returned home from the war in Iraq, a 54-year-old Marine reservist collapsed and died of a heart attack.

Dale Racicot's widow, Janet, said her husband, a master gunnery sergeant, came home Friday and looked forward to spending the weekend with her and his daughters, Keri Magnarelli, 24, and Stacey, 20.

At about 2:30 a.m. Saturday, after three hours of talking, Racicot suggested everybody go to bed since they had the whole weekend to get caught up.
