Both U-S Senators from Missouri are announcing the passage of a resolution to honor Marine Lance Corporal Jared Schmitz of Wentzville, Missouri.
Schmitz was killed in Kabul, Afghanistan along with 12 other service members in a terrorist attack August 26th.
But this resolution will also honor 55 other Missourians who lost their lives during combat operations in Afghanistan.
Missouri U-S Representative Blaine Luetkemeyer of the Lake Area has a companion resolution working in the House of Representatives.
