Two of the four U.S. Marines killed by a Muslim extremist in an attack on a Tennessee military facility have been identified, including an Iraqi war veteran and Purple Heart recipient from Springfield, Mass., and a reserve lance corporal from Marietta, Ga.
Gunnery Sgt. Thomas Sullivan, 40, a Marine since 1997, was one of those killed Thursday by Mohammad Youssef Abdulazeez, 24, a Kuwaiti-born Chattanooga resident who was killed near the scene. Fox News learned that one of the other three was Lance Cpl. Skip Wells, of Georgia. Wells was a cannoneer, although other details about him were not immediately known.
RIP GySgt Thomas Sullivan, it was an honor knowing you and knowing you're the reason why my mom would smile. 7/16/15
