A soldier was killed in a shooting Monday at Fort Stewart in Georgia and a suspect was in custody, an official said.
Law enforcement was dispatched to the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team complex on the military base, which is located near the city of Hinesville, for a possible shooting just before 10 a.m., according to a statement from spokesman Kevin Larson. The same information was shared on Fort Stewart's social media.
The complex was briefly locked down, Larson said.
On the eve of the D-Day invasion, Gen. Dwight Eisenhower spent the remaining hours of daylight with the paratroopers who were about to jump behind German lines into occupied France. A single moment captured by an Army photographer became the most enduring image of America's greatest military operation.
