Soldier killed during second tour in Iraq
Associated Press
ROCKY MOUNT, Va. — A soldier in his second tour of duty in Iraq was killed when his armored vehicle was struck by a roadside bomb, his family said Monday.
Army Spc. Jared William Kubasak died either late Sunday or early Monday, a family representative told The Roanoke Times for a story published Tuesday.
Kubasak, 25, was serving with the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, based in Fort Carson, Colo. He was home as recently as last month to celebrate his 25th birthday, family friends said, and was scheduled to return home in March after his tour ended.
Patti Smith, a neighbor of the family, said Kubasak visited the Virginia Veteran’s Care center, where she works, when he was home last month to visit with war veterans.
Franklin County Circuit Judge William Alexander ordered flags flown at half-staff until further notice...
