The Joplin Globe reported today that SSG John James Cleaver, age 36, of the 82nd Airborne Division of the U.S. Army, was killed Thursday in the Zabul province of Afghanistan. Mrs. Cleaver on Saturday said her son and other soldiers were delivering supplies to a forward operating base when a truck pulled up beside them and exploded. Cleaver and at least one other soldier were killed, and several were injured by the suicide bomber, she said. “He gave his all,” she said of her son’s devotion to duty. “His shoes were going to be the shiniest — that kind of thing.” SSG Cleaver joined the Navy in 1995 and was stationed on the U.S.S. Inchon at Ingleside , Texas . He served in Kosovo. He later moved to Norfolk , Va. , where he was a firefighter instructor for three years. He then transferred to Seattle , where he set up a firefighter training school and was stationed on the U.S.S. Rodney M. Davis, soon deploying to Iraq as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. After serving 10 years in the Navy, he retired as a petty officer and enlisted in the Army. Shortly after arriving at Fort Bragg , N.C. , he was deployed to Afghanistan as a convoy commander and a medic. Upon returning from that tour of duty, SSG Cleaver completed paratrooper training and had been working to become a master jumper. SSG Cleaver was deployed to Afghanistan again in July. This would be his fourth deployment to a War Zone.
