SCOTTSBURG, Ind. — A 29-year-old soldier from southern Indiana was killed in Iraq, his family said.
An army chaplain informed Gail Bond early May 23 that her son, Sgt. Joe Montgomery, 29, died May 22 while on a mission in Baghdad dealing with underground explosives, Bond said.
“Joe stepped on a wire that triggered an explosion and he was killed instantly,” Montgomery’s uncle, Bill Graham, told Louisville, Ky.’s WHAS-TV.
Montgomery leaves behind a wife and three children, who live at Fort Richardson in Alaska. A brother, Micah, is also in Iraq with the Army.
The family was planning a funeral and burial in Scottsburg.
