LOS ANGELES -- A Mississippi Army National Guardsman was killed and three others injured this week during a large-scale combat training exercise at a Mojave Desert training facility, according to military officials.

Sgt. Kyle Clayton Thomas and three other soldiers, who were assigned to the Senatobia, Mississippi-based 2nd Battalion, 198th Armored Regiment, were performing combat maneuver operations in a battle tank on Memorial Day at the Fort Irwin National Training Center, according to Lt. Col. Christian Patterson, a spokesman for the Mississippi Military Department.
