GREENVILE, N.C. —

A U.S. Army private from North Carolina was killed on Saturday, just one month before he was supposed to come back from his first deployment in Afghanistan.

Twenty-two-year-old Joshua Nelson from Greenville leaves behind his wife whom he married right out of high school.

It is not clear when Nelson's body will be returned home or how he died.
