(INDIANAPOLIS) - Governor Mike Braun has ordered flags across Indiana to be flown at half-staff from sunrise to sunset Saturday, April 4, in honor of fallen Indiana airman Capt. Seth Koval.
Koval was killed in action overseas on March 12 while serving in support of Operation Epic Fury.
The Mooresville native previously served as a machinist with the 122nd Fighter Wing of the Indiana Air National Guard in Fort Wayne before transferring to the Ohio Air National Guard as a pilot and instructor after graduating from Purdue University.
Braun is also encouraging Hoosiers to lower flags at homes and businesses statewide on Saturday as the state honors Koval's service and sacrifice.
