In The Region: Three National Guardsmen from central Ohio were killed by a suicide bomber Wednesday in Afghanistan – a day after another Ohio soldier was killed in a separate IED explosion.
The names of the three are not expected to be released until tonight.
But the Army has confirmed that Staff Sgt. Christopher Brown of Columbus was the one who died in Tuesday’s explosion in Kunar province. He was 26 and assigned to a division out of Fort Carson, Colo.
According to the Columbus Dispatch, the other three also were from Franklin County. They were among the 2,500 troops deployed with the 37th Infantry Brigade combat team. According to the BBC, they and at least seven others died when a suicide bomber drove his motorcycle into a park in the capital of Faryab province. Others were critically wounded.
The Dispatch says one of those killed Wednesday was 44-year-old Shawn Hannon, a lawyer from Grove City.
The deployment of the 37th to Afghanistan is the Ohio guard’s largest deployment since World War II. |

The Department of Defense identified the soldiers, all from central Ohio ,as Capt. Nicholas Rozanski ; Sgt. 1st Class Jeffrey Rieck ; and Sgt. 1st Class Shawn T. Hannon. Hannon was chief legal counsel for Ohio’s Department of Veterans Services. The soldiers were from the Ohio National Guard's 37th Infantry Brigade Combat Team. The brigade is based in Columbus but includes soldiers from across Ohio. The soldiers died in an attack by a suicide bomber on a motorcycle Wednesday in Faryab province that killed at least 13 people. The Taliban has claimed responsibility. |
