While the nation mourns the loss of those who paid the ultimate price in service to their country on this Memorial Day, the grieving is a little more fresh and personal for many in the University of North Georgia family. U.S. Army 1st Lt. Weston C. Lee, a 2014 UNG graduate, was killed April 29 in Iraq when an improvised explosive device detonated during a patrol outside Mosul. He was a paratrooper assigned to the 82nd Airborne Division and was on his first deployment.
