Spc. Jessica Sarandrea, 22, of Miami, was killed during a mortar attack, March 3 2009, in Mosul, Iraq.
Sarandrea, who graduated from Coral Gables High School, was stationed in Mosul, where she worked as a supply specialist performing logistical support for her battalion, said Alejandro ”Alex” Sarandrea, her husband. She was walking from her office, perhaps to get her gear, when she was hit by shrapnel from incoming mortar, her husband said.
