DUTCHESS COUNTY, N.Y. (WENY) – A woman from the Hudson Valley has been identified as one of the four Americans killed in a suicide bombing attack in Syria.

35-year-old Navy Chief Cryptologic Technician Shannon Kent was originally from Dutchess County. Her specific town has not yet been released.

Before traveling to Syria, Kent was stationed at Fort George G. Meade in Maryland.

On Wednesday, the United States confirmed four American citizens – two of them soldiers – were killed in an explosion in Syria. ISIS has taken credit for the attack.

Other victims identified were Department of Defense worker Scott Wirtz of Saint Louis and Army Chief Warrant Officer Jonathan Farmer of Boynton Beach, Florida. Officials say the fourth American killed was a Defense Department contractor, but the Pentagon says his name would not be released since he was not in the military.

In a statement, Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro said, “We mourn the death of Dutchess County’s Shannon Kent in Syria earlier this week. May her light shine on through her friends and loved ones, and may her family find peace during this difficult time. Dutchess County will long remember Shannon’s service to our nation and her ultimate sacrifice.”
