Killed by accidental shooting while on base in Kandahar.

Kevin Megeney was the youngest of three from Stellarton, N.S. He was remembered at his funeral as a great soldier and a great friend who was proud to put on the uniform. He believed in the mission - that was his reason for serving - that was his reason for going. He wanted to help.
