Nate Henn - the American killed in Uganda bomb explosions




The American men believed killed in the Uganda bomb explosions advocated for the rights of child soldiers in the east African country.

Nate Henn - a native of Raleigh, North Carolina - was a former rugby player at the University of Delaware. He had worked with Invisible Children organization for a year and a half and raised funds to help educate Ugandan students affected by war. At the time of the bombings, he was with some of the students he worked with.

According to a post on Invisible Children organization website, Nate Henn was in the country on its behalf to work with Ugandan students. The post said, "Nate was not a glory seeker and never sought the spotlight. He asked not to be made a hero of. But the life he lived inspires reflection and imitation."
