Four days after spending time with his family while on leave, a soldier from Volusia County was killed in a training exercise in Kuwait.

Marc Whisenant, 23, died Friday, his father said.

Few details were available Sunday, but Jerry Whisenant said he was told his son died during a training exercise when a Humvee overturned.

Marc Whisenant spent four years in the ROTC program at Spruce Creek High School in Port Orange and soon after graduating in 2005 he enlisted in the U.S. Army, his father said.
