Before enlisting in the Navy, the 22-year-old was a member of the state champion wrestling team and made the final four football playoffs two years in a row.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe threw himself into everything he did with a fierce passion,\u201d said Kathleen. \u201cWe saw it during his high school years with his sports career and once Maxton became an adult, he developed a passion for living.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added, her brother spent up to his very last breathe providing aid to those in need and in the end making the ultimate sacrifice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn Maxton\u2019s final days he spent his time helping others stay alive as he had developed a passion for protecting and saving the lives of others, so much so that he was willing to risk his own life,\u201d continued the mourning sister.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/RIP?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#RIP<\/a> we have the watch. \u2693 \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 <\/p>\n<p>Hospital Corpsman 3rd Class Maxton W.

Max lived his life that way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maxton leaves behind 12 brothers and sisters. In honor of his actions, the Navy posthumously promoted him to a Hospital Corpsman Third Class earlier this month. He was also awarded the Purple Heart and Fleet Marine Force Corpsman Warfare Badge.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/house-foreign-affairs-committee-member-rep-zeldin-reacts-to-blinkens-testimony\/\">House Foreign Affairs Committee Member Rep.
