Danny DelBianco died following a rigorous training exercise in California on Tuesday April 5, while pursuing his lifelong dream of becoming a Navy SEAL.
Danny was born in Arlington, Virginia in 1992 to Steven and Elaine DelBianco. He leaves behind his parents, his siblings, John and Lena, his extended family, and the love of his life – Mrika Kadeli.
From an early age, Danny talked about becoming a Navy SEAL. Earlier this year, Danny wrote this answer to the question, "Why do I want to become a SEAL?"
I want to be a part of a type-A community.
I want to feel like I belong because I've earned the right to belong.
I want to do something special.
My life won't feel complete unless I do this.
Every time I read about or see pictures of SEALs, I feel motivated
The experience will shape and define the rest of my life.
I want to do something exciting and feel like I'm actually living.
I want to be pushed to my limits and find what I'm capable of.
All of this is elevated by the fact that I'm defending a country that i believe is the best on earth for providing a safe environment full of opportunity and personal liberty.
Danny attended Trinity School at Meadow View in Falls Church, Virginia. He then graduated with honors from the University of Southern California in 2015. Even before his USC graduation ceremony, Danny enlisted in the U.S. Navy.
Throughout college Danny worked-out relentlessly, enabling him to perform at the top of his class in Navy boot camp and SEAL training. His Navy buddies revered Danny for his abilities, his drive, and for helping others through their own challenges. They all talked about Danny's high integrity in doing things the right way – not the easy way. His legacy to the Navy and SEAL program is that Danny has inspired those around him to give greater efforts in the pursuit of excellence.
We will forever remember Danny for the determination, gentleness, and love he carried in his heart.
