4 of the 30 casualties from the Chinook were from the Kansas City region in some fashion. Yesterday, we buried Specialist Spencer Duncan for Fort Leavenworth. Today, CW2 Bryan Nichols will be buried over in Hays, Kansas, his hometown.

Spencer Duncan
At the Fort, when we have an interment of a fallen warrior, we do an Avenue of Flags down Grant Avenue, the main street of Fort Leavenworth. The road is lined by soldiers, family members, and civilians – as virtually all of us have, or have had, skin in this game.
Yesterday was Specialist Duncan’s turn.
