Sgt. 1st Class Kristoffer B. Domeij, 29, of San Diego, and Pfc. Christopher A. Horns, 20, of Colorado Springs, Colo., were mortally wounded in Afghanistan's Kandahar province, according to the U.S. Special Operations Command.
Both were assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment.
Domeij, who was on his 14th deployment, enlisted in the Army in July 2001 after graduating from Rancho Bernardo High School.
