Sgt. Andrew Doiron was killed March 6, 2015, in a friendly fire incident while advising and assisting Iraqi Kurdish forces in Iraq.

The death of the 31-year-old soldier from Moncton, New Brunswick, resonated across Canada, with many Canadians growing weary of the nation's ongoing military involvement in the Middle East.

Sgt. Doiron's family and friends remembered him as "humble, honest, funny, sympathetic, supportive, honest, determined, motivated, driven," according to an article in the National Post.
