Decatur soldier killed in Iraq

Decatur - Friends are paying tribute to an Indiana soldier and father who died in Iraq this week.

Phillip Jenkins was killed when an Iraqi soldier opened fire on his security group. A second US soldier was killed and several others were wounded in what the US military calls a "deliberate act."

"Phillip was a very dedicated and motivated young man. Always had a smile for you," said Janice Reynolds, Jenkins' band director at Bellmont High School.

A smiling Philip Jenkins is pictured with his wife and two young daughters. His family and friends now mourn the 26-year-old.

"You ask why," said Reynolds.
