Funeral honors three Ft. Riley soldiers killed in training exercise in California
The Associated Press
FORT RILEY — With a 21-gun salute and the mournful notes of a bugler, tribute was paid yesterday to three Fort Riley soldiers killed during a training accident in California.
About 300 people, mainly soldiers in uniform, gathered at a post chapel for the 20-minute service for Sgt. Clifton J. Decklar, 22, of Shelton, Wash.; Spec. Bobby L. Newton, 27, of New Orleans, and Pfc. Oscar Perez-Jimenez, 19, of West Covina, Calif. No immediate family of the victims attended.
The soldiers were killed when a 120 mm mortar round fired from an armored vehicle exploded during a training exercise last Friday at the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, Calif.
"All knew them as great warriors who made the ultimate sacrifice," said Lt. Col. George Brinegar, commander of their unit, the 2nd Battalion, 34th Armor.
"These three men were brave soldiers...no greater compliment can be paid," he added.
Brinegar said the loss was felt by all, and remembrance of them "should be a testimony to what our brotherhood means."
He said the men "were not
fighting for themselves but for others, their friends on the other side of the battlefield."
At the front of the sanctuary was a display of three rifles with bayonets stuck upside down, as if driven into the ground. Atop each rifle was a helmet; a pair of dogtags dangled from each.
Three pairs of polished black boots and a photograph of each victim were in front of the rifles.

CORRECTIONS
A column in yesterday's Kansan incorrectly stated the amount of money Student Senate allocated for this year's Pride Week. The column stated the amount was $10,000. Actually, Senate allocated $7,400. The column also incorrectly stated Dred, a comedian, would be coming to campus for Pride Week activities. He will not perform on campus. The column also stated that Pride Week had already taken place. Pride Week is April 8 to 13.
Because of a copy editor error, Kansas track and field head coach Stanley Redwine was incorrectly identified as sophomore Crystal Redwine in Thursday's Kansan.
Because of a copy editor error, a story in yesterday's Kansan incorrectly stated that sludge dumped down the main drain of the University Garage had been tested and was not toxic. Doug Riat, director of Facilities Operations said the sludge was not toxic, however, it has not yet been tested. Also, the story reported the Kansas River was named dirtiest river in the United States. Actually it was named fourth dirtiest by the American Rivers organization.
A story in Monday's Kansan stated officers tried to stop cars from driving through campus, but gave up because of the steady stream of traffic. In fact, officers did not give up but took down the barriers because of a lack of traffic. The story also stated about 15 officers with helmets and shields gathered in front of Wescoe Hall. There were actually only three to five.
CAMPUS
violations reported in Student Senate race
Five Student Senate campaign violations were reported this week.
Elections Commissioner David Mitchell said four of the violations involved posters hanging on bulletin boards in classrooms and on departmental bulletin boards.
"The only bulletin boards you can freely put signs up on are unrestricted bulletin boards," Mitchell said.
The fifth violation concerned a candidate who did not attend a mandatory candidate workshop.
The Elections Commission will meet on Wednesday, April 16, to hear the complaints.
A log of the campaign violations is available online at http://www.ku.edu/~election.

Mitchell also said that seven students went to the Dean of Student's office during one half hour yesterday looking for complaint forms. He did not know what the complaints entailed.
