Fifty Army special-operations Soldiers killed during combat operations while deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan were remembered during a somber ceremony held by the United States Army Special Operations Command, or USASOC, May 25.
Lieutenant General Robert W. Wagner, commanding general of USASOC, addressed an audience of about 500 Soldiers, family members, friends and special guests.
"No words can adequately describe the valor of the men and women we honor today," said Wagner. "The Soldiers we honor today follow in the footsteps of our forefathers who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect America and to spread freedom throughout the world."
