Remembering U.S. Ambassador to Libya, Chris Stevens
The YouTube account for the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli has a great, short video honoring Christopher Stevens, the former U.S. Ambassdor to Libya who was killed during this week's attack on the U.S. embassy in Benghavi, along with embassy worker Sean Smith and two other currently unidentified Americans.
Stevens first arrived in the Tripoli in May of this year, and the video was posted at the time to serve as an introduction for a man who was a Peace Corps volunteer, teacher and U.S. Foreign Service member for two decades.
Stevens is the first sitting U.S. ambassador to die in office since Arnold Lewis Raphel in Pakistan in 1988, and is the eighth U.S. Ambassador to ever be killed in the line of duty.
