Mourners gather for farewell to soldier killed in Afghanistan
A poet, chef, mechanic and soldier, Pvt. Alan J. Austin was more than just a talented young man, his friends and family said. "We're saying farewell to a good man and a good person," said family friend Reba James. "He was honest. He had a beautiful smile." Austin, 21, died Aug. 12 of injuries suffered in a noncombat-related accident when his Humvee rolled over near a forward operating base in Sharana, Afghanistan, military officials said. The machine gunner on the truck, Austin was assigned to the 782nd Brigade Support Battalion, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division stationed at Fort Bragg, N.C. About 100 people gathered at the Sunlight Baptist Tabernacle, in the 6300 block of Laura Koppe, Thursday to say their last goodbyes.
