Army Ranger Kristoffer Domeij Killed In Action During 14th Deployment
 Part of channel(s): Afghanistan (current event)

Killed during his fourteenth deployment on Saturday, Kristoffer Domeij
served more than any other Army ranger who died in action, KOMO-TV
reports.


Domeij enlisted two months before September 11 and continued fighting
for his country, nearly nonstop, from that moment. Though Army rangers
typically complete one four-month tour, this Lacey, Wash. native served
48 months in combat in Iraq and Afghanistan.


"This was a ranger you wanted at your side when the chips were down,"
battalion commander, Lt. Col. David Hodne told the news outlet. "He is
irreplaceable - in our formation and in our hearts."

  • That is a true "Hero". He was on the battlefield putting HIS life on the line (literally) so that the other 400 million Americans can live the "free" lives that they do. (Yes, I consider Canada part of that "group")

    RIP Ranger! You did well.

    • @SARTeam I consider Americans family, just as much as i consider any fellow Canadian family. We're one and the same.

      I respect any and all members that currently (and previously) serve in the Canadian/American armed forces. Without them we would simply be a mess, like many war-torn places overseas.

  • i'm reminded of this poem, written by a war hero in the 1st world war.

    this is for you, Kristoffer, may God bless your resting soul.


    Bent double, like old beggars under sacks,
    Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
    Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs
    And towards our distant rest began to trudge.
    Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots,
    But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind;
    Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots
    Of tired, outstripped Fiv More..

  • War Hero! Fighting for freedom unlike the locals fighting for a free-ride. Get a clue! Fight for your country not against it. You that occupy nothing occupy nothing.

  • If you take alot of chances, nomatter what side you are on, you will eventualy loose the game. Many afghans have been to war since 9/11 and tooke their chances too.
