SEMINOLE, Fla. — The Seminole Post Office building dedicated to Staff Sgt. Ryan Knauss, a 23-year-old soldier who was killed in a terrorist attack at the Kabul airport in 2021 on Thursday.

Ryan's mother, Paula Knauss, is a Seminole resident. She spoke with ABC Action News back in 2021 and said her son's destiny was to be a soldier.

"He will be forever remembered, as helping us in this country, remember what true heroism is," said Paula.

Ryan was one of 13 soldiers who died during the 2021 terrorist attack while evacuating civilians to safety.

The post office is located at 9355 113th Street.
