Christopher Seifert was an athlete, a musician and an outstanding student. But it was his smile that people remember best. “He had an absolutely winning smile,” recalled Robert Stinson, a history professor at Moravian College in Bethlehem, PA, who was Seifert’s academic adviser and instructor for two courses. “You saw him coming and saw his smile, and he lit up the morning.” Seifert, 27, was a captain in the Army’s 101st Airborne Division based at Fort Campbell, KY. He was killed in Kuwait Saturday when authorities say another U.S. soldier shot him in the back and tossed hand grenades into the command tents of the division’s 1st Brigade. Seifert was married to Theresa Flowers-Seifert, who also had been a student at Moravian. The couple had their first child, Benjamin, four months ago. Seifert grew up in Williams Township, PA, a rural community near Easton, and was the only child of Thomas and Helen Seifert. A 1993 graduate of Wilson Area High School, Seifert ran cross- country and track. He played saxophone in the jazz, concert and marching bands. He was selected for the National Honor Society and participated in peer mediation and the ecology club. “One of the best students in that class,” Principal John Martuscelli said. Family members declined to be interviewed but released a statement: “The family is obviously devastated by the loss and appreciates all the support of family and friends.” While Seifert was a history major at Moravian, he enrolled in the Army Reserve Officers Training Corps at nearby Lehigh University. His interest was military history, and for a time he considered a teaching career. “But he was very happy with his decision to join the ROTC unit,” Stinson said. The discipline Seifert learned in his ROTC classes carried over to the rest of his college life. “It was ‘yes sir, no sir, I think I agree with that sir,’ ” Stinson said. “He was very respectful. When he left, he would always shake hands and say, ‘Thank you, sir.’ ” Stinson called Seifert’s death at the hands of another soldier “incredibly poignant.” On Monday, he told his students about Seifert and pointed to where he used to sit in their classroom. “It’s not exactly like losing a son, but it’s very close to that,” he said.

Barely a year ago, Brandon Sloan, 19, of Bedford Heights, OH, traded his Bearcats football jersey for an Army mechanic’s coveralls. He left high school his senior year to join the Army. “He didn’t drop out. He withdrew,” said his father, the Rev. Tandy Sloan. “His thinking to join the Army was altruistic in the sense that he was bettering his own self while serving his country. He was very much committed to the cause of country.” Sloan was a big guy, happy-go-lucky and loyal to a fault. Tony Tucker, a former classmate and senior at Bedford High, described him as “a kind, sweet person” and “a cool person to be around, but kind of quiet.” Sloan, who grew up in suburban Cleveland, moved in with his mother in Fraser, MI, outside Detroit, after leaving school. His mother, Kimberly Sloan, said, “I’m extremely proud of him for fighting for our country.”

Lance Cpl. Thomas J. Slocum was a troubled teenager when the Marines turned his life around. “He was gung-ho,” said Slocum’s stepfather, Stanley Cooper. “Once he got in the Marines, he was in it all the way. He didn’t do anything halfway. “He enjoyed being in the Marines. He believed in what he was doing over there, and we supported him 100 percent,” said his stepfather, Stanley Cooper. “He believed the war was necessary, and that’s the same way we felt,” Cooper said. “We’re very, very proud of him.” A Navy veteran, Cooper suggested his stepson join the military. Slocum hadn’t been a good student before signing up, but his grades improved and he made the honor roll before graduating from Skyview High School in 1998, Cooper said. KMGH-TV, an ABC station in Denver, reported that Slocum grew up in a close-knit neighborhood, in a house next to his grandparents. “When his grandfather called me and said, ‘You won’t believe this,’ I said, ‘Oh, no,’ and I just fell apart,” neighbor Glenna Anderson told the station. “He’s going to be awfully missed.”

The incident is under investigation. Teachers recall Narson Sullivan rollerblading through the hallways and courtyards of his high school — a tall, athletic and handsome kid whose enthusiasm for life was infectious. “You’d go out there to admonish him about violating the school rules by rollerblading in the courtyard, and the next thing you knew, you had the darn things on your own feet and he was teaching you how to skate,” said Rob Allen, a teacher at Middlesex County Vocational and Technical High School in North Brunswick, NJ. Sullivan, 21, graduated in 2000 and joined the Army with his longtime friend, Matthew Richter. They had expected to serve on the buddy system but got separated. Sullivan, based at Fort Hood in Texas, was killed April 25 in Iraq when he was cleaning his weapon and it discharged, according to the Defense Department. “He was really a great kid. A nice person. Focused and polite,” recalled his high school principal, Diane Veilleux. “He always had a beautiful smile.” Nancy Richter, his best friend’s mother, who works at the school, said, “I remember him and Matt, eating, watching TV, making plans. He used to call me ‘Mom,’ which was part of his sense of humor — because we’re white and he was black. He liked to see people’s eyebrows go up.” His aunt, Tabatha Sullivan, said, “The thing that’s so upsetting is that we thought this was all over and that he was out of danger. We want everyone to know that we’re praying for all the other soldiers who are there. We wish they all could come home safe.”
