Default Danish officer dies after mortar attack in Afghanistan

Quote:
COPENHAGEN, Denmark: A Danish army officer has died from injuries sustained during an operation in southern Afghanistan, Denmark's military said Tuesday.

Maj. Anders Storrud, head of a mechanized infantry company, was injured by mortar fire Monday in the volatile Helmand province, said Maj. Gen. Poul Kiaerskou, head of the Army Operational Command. The unit was recovering an armored vehicle that had struck a mine. Storrud, 34, was evacuated to a Danish base where he died Tuesday, Kiaerskou said.

Denmark has some 600 troops in Helmand province that are part of NATO's 40,000-man force in Afghanistan.

A total of seven Danish troops have now been killed in Afghanistan.
