To honor Illinois' fallen soldiers, Specialist Norman L. Cain, III (Oregon, IL), Specialist Robert M. Weinger (Round Lake Beach, IL) and Sergeant Christopher P. Abeyta (Midlothian, IL), Governor Quinn has requested that all United States and Illinois flags be at half-staff from sunrise, Wednesday, March 25, 2009 through sunset, Saturday, March 28, 2009.
The three soldiers were assigned to the 1st Battalion, 178th Infantry Regiment, 33rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team in Woodstock, IL. The young men were all part of the Illinois National Guard's large scale involvement in eastern Afghanistan.
Our hearts go out to their families and friends.
