U.S. Army Reserve Soldier Killed in Drone Strike Was Days Away From Coming Home – story-veterans.com

But to those who knew her at home, Nicole Amor was far more than a soldier.

She was a mother of two—a high school senior son and a fourth-grade daughter—who loved spending time outdoors with them. She enjoyed rollerblading, biking, gardening, and cooking. One of her favorite small traditions was making homemade salsa using vegetables from her backyard garden.

The strike that took her life also killed several other American troops, including Cody Khork, 35, of Florida; Noah Tietjens, 42, of Nebraska; and Declan Coady, 20, of Iowa. The Department of Defense has not yet released the names of the remaining two service members who died in the attack.
