Staff Sgt. Michael Ollis, 24, of Staten Island was killed in Afghanistan Wednesday.

An Army carry team carries the transfer case containing the remains of Army Staff Sgt. Michael H. Ollis upon arrival at Dover Air Force Bas in Delaware Saturday.

Flags on state government buildings will be flown at half-staff Wednesday to honor a 24-year-old soldier from Staten Island killed in Afghanistan.
Staff Sgt. Michael Ollis was killed last week by insurgents who attacked his unit in Ghazni Province.


Ollis, who was recently awarded the Bronze Star, served a combat tour in Iraq and was in his second in Afghanistan when he was killed.
He was assigned to the 10th Mountain Division’s 2nd Battalion, 22nd Infantry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team based at Fort Drum, N.Y.
