Army Staff Sgt. Jason W. Montefering of Parkston, South Dakota graduated from Parkston High School in 1997. In mechanics, he often did extra work often sweeping up after or helping the others. All of the guys liked working with him and he was considered a good kid. He wasn't afraid to get in there and get dirty. He'd help out no matter what. He was somebody that if you told him to be there at 8:00, he'd be there and most times he would be there early. Jason is the 11th South Dakotan or soldier from a South Dakota unit to be killed during the Iraq war. He was killed when an improvised explosive device detonated near his Bradley fighting vehicle in Baghdad. He was 27.
