FALLEN HERO
Army Chief Warrant Officer 2 Christopher G. Nason
Army Chief Warrant Officer 2 Christopher G. Nason
39 years old from Los Angeles, California
A Company, 306th Military Intelligence Battalion
November 23, 2003

Chief Warrant Officer 2 Christopher G. Nason was a superb leader who was an expert linguist and able to accomplish any mission given him, said his battalion commander, Lt. Col. Mark Costello.

Nason, a member of the 306th Military Intelligence Battalion, excelled in highly stressful environments, Costello said. The 39-year-old from Los Angeles was killed Nov. 23 when his vehicle was struck by a civilian tanker truck in northern Iraq. He was based at Fort Huachuca.

Nason was in charge of the unmanned aerial vehicle section of the New Systems Training and Integration Office. He is survived by a sister.

These brave men and women have given their lives so that others may enjoy the freedoms we get to enjoy everyday. For that, I am proud to call them Hero.

Is For Good Men To Do Nothing
