TERRELL, Texas (AP) - Another Texas soldier has died in
Afghanistan.
     
Twenty-four-year-old Staff Sgt. Shawn McNabb, of Terrell, was
among a group of soldiers killed late Sunday night when the
helicopter they were in went down shortly after they completed a
mission.
     
Dallas-Fort Worth television station KDFW reported Wednesday
that his mother, Ann McNabb, says her son loved helping people.
     
The soldier was a combat medic who had already completed three
tours in Iraq.

The Corpus Christi City Council has voted to negotiate with the National Swim Center to replace the Coliseum. Do you agree?

  • Yes.
  • No. Just demolish the building.
  • No. Rennovate it and use as a public venue, as it has been.
  • I liked the Brass/Ice Skating Rink idea.
