Houston, 35, of West Hyannisport, Mass. Houston was a 16 year Navy vet who became a SEAL in 1999. He received a Purple Heart, two Bronze Stars and participated in more than 100 capture and missions.

Kelly, a Vietnam veteran, says Houston would always make time to visit Cape Cod when he had leave even though he made his home in Chesapeake, Va., with his wife and three children. He was a football captain at Barnstable High School and joined the Navy not long after he graduated in 1994. He became a SEAL in 1999.
