McCloskey. In response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks, McCloskey enlisted in the Army after his graduation from North Cobb High School. On September 16, 2009, McCloskey was conducting a mounted patrol in Afghanistan when his vehicle was fatally struck by an improvised explosive device, an IED. I support naming a post office in memory of Sergeant First Class McCloskey, and I encourage my colleagues to support this bill. Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
