Two of the victims of the Fort Hood shootings had ties to Missouri.

Capt. John P. Gaffaney and Lt. Col. Juanita Warman were assigned to the 1908th Medical Company in Independence.

The 56-year-old Gaffaney was a psychiatric nurse who worked for San Diego County, Calif., for more than 20 years and had arrived at Fort Hood the day before the shooting to prepare for a deployment to Iraq.

He supervised a team of six social workers. Gaffaney is survived by a wife and a son.
