US Army Specialist Augustus Vicari

22-year-old Oklahoma Army National Guardsman, Augustus 'Augy' Vicari was killed in action on Friday 29th July 2011 when a bomb detonated as his unit was on patrol in Paktia, Afghanistan. He had deployed to Afghanistan in June.

Spc. Vicari, who graduated from Lowell High School, Indiana, in 2008 was married and lived in Oklahoma. He joined the Oklahoma National Guard in 2009. He and his wife, Holly, would have celebrated their first wedding anniversary in September.

A "quick wit and ready smile" is how family and friends are remembering Augustus Vicari, one of five children.

Spc. Augy Vicari leaves his wife Holly Vicari from Broken Arrow, Oklahoma; his parents, Michael and Evelyn Vicari from Lowell; his brothers, Joseph (Gina) Vicari from Cedar Lake and Michael Vicari from Lowell; and his sisters, Emily Vicari and Mollie Vicari, both from Lowell.

Spc. Vicari was serving with the 1st Battalion, 279th Infantry Regiment. Also killed in the same incident was 2nd Lt. Jered Ewy.
