PHOENIX — A soldier from the Navajo Nation has died serving in Iraq, his family said May 15.
Army Sgt. Christopher Neil Gonzalez, 25, was killed May 14, though the Department of Defense has not confirmed or released details of his death.
Leonard Chee, a delegate to the Navajo Nation Council, said in a statement the entire Navajo community was in shock.
“This war has really hit home. Say a prayer for all our Navajo Native American soldiers who are in Iraq fighting,” Chee said.
According to Chee, Gonzalez was carrying out his second tour of duty in Iraq and left behind a wife and child.
