spent the weekendkilledCorrection, July 30: A member of Strong's family has contacted me to say that Strong was killed by small arms fire--not a roadside bomb, as I first wrote (based on a misunderstanding of a bomb incident also described in the article about Strong to which I had linked). I sincerely regret the error. The family member also said, in response to some debate in the comments for this item, that the family had no objection to him being mentioned in this blog post.Michael Crowley
