OHIO — Ohio Governor Mike DeWine (R) has ordered that all U.S. and Ohio flags be lowered to honor the life and service of Corporal Thomas Cole Walker.

Flags will fly half-staff on all public buildings and grounds in Astabula County, and at the Ohio Statehouse, Vern Riffe Center and Rhodes State Office Tower in Columbus.

Walker, of Conneaut, was killed early Sunday morning in a training accident in Fort Stewart, GA, along with two other U.S. Army soldiers.

Flags will remain lowered until sunset on the day of Walker’s funeral.
