Md. Flags At Half-Staff To Honor Army Pilot Killed In Afghan Crash

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) -- Flags in Maryland are flying at half-staff in honor of an Army helicopter pilot killed in a crash in Afghanistan.

U.S. flags and Maryland flags are flying at half-staff Monday in honor of Capt. Sara M. Knutson Cullen, 27, of Eldersburg. She is being buried Monday at Arlington National Cemetery.

The helicopter pilot was among five crew members killed when their UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter crashed March 11 in Kandahar, Afghanistan. She was a 2007 West Point graduate and a 2003 graduate of Liberty High School.
