FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. — A southwest Ohio man was one of four soldiers with the 101st Airborne Division who were killed in Iraq when a roadside bomb exploded near their Humvee, the military said Tuesday.
Army Pvt. Adam “A.J.” Johnson, 22, of Clayton, Ohio, had been in Iraq for about five weeks, his family said.
The soldiers were on patrol near Mahmdiyah, south of Baghdad, when the explosion happened Monday, Fort Campbell spokeswoman Kelly Tyler said in a statement.
Johnson’s father, Randy Johnson, said Tuesday he was notified of his son’s death by two Army chaplains Monday night.
“All they said was he was in a Humvee on patrol and it went over an improvised bomb,” the elder Johnson said. Clayton is about 10 miles northwest of Dayton.
