There is this one term phrase when a solider dies while serving the counrty.

Its something like. " in the line of duty." Im not quite sure what it is. Would you tell me the phrase.

A common expression is he "killed in the line of duty."

thanks

he was killed in the line of duty

Under law, if a person in the armed forces is injured or killed in the line of duty, they are eligible for benefits. So the "line of duty" determination has money value to it.

Thank you for the correction, Lemon.

Oh, never knew that.

Thanks a lot.
