Hundreds support family of fallen Green Beret; lawmakers seek answers to deadly battle

People across the country are pitching in to support the family of Staff Sgt. Matthew McClintock, the Special Forces soldier killed Tuesday in Afghanistan.

A GoFundMe page set up for McClintock’s wife and infant son has raised more than $45,380 in less than 24 hours — more than nine times the initial fundraising goal of $5,000.
