The funeral service for Marine Staff-SGT Michael Calvin Wednesday afternoon came with full military honors. Calvin never got a chance to play for the University he loved but he cheered on the team even if he was in a battle zone half a world away. With that in mind, his commander and several friends contacted the university to find a way to recognize that burnt orange passion. FOX 7's Rudy Koski has the story.
