Omaha Marine dies in Iraq same day his son is born
By The Associated Press
OMAHA — A 23-year-old Omaha Marine died while fighting in Iraq, the same day he became a father, family members said Tuesday.
Shane Kielion's son was born at about 10 a.m. Monday and Kielion died just hours later, said his aunt Karma Matthews.
Matthews said Kielion never found out he had become a dad.
Kielion, who was on his second tour in Iraq, graduated from Omaha South High School in 1999 and married his high school sweetheart, April, the mother of his new baby.
