Soldiers and civilians gather to honor Staff Sgt. Kirk Owen in Supulpa, Okla., July 14. Owen was a squad leader for the scout platoon with Headquarters Company, 1st Battalion, 279th Infantry. The playground he often took his two daughters was renamed Owen Park during the ceremony put on by Freedom Park Homeowner's Association. A lighted flagpole was also installed to fly an American flag next to the plaque during day and night. (US Army photo by Spc.
