An inquest into the death of Hampshire soldier Private Eleanor Dlugosz in Iraq earlier this month opened today.
The body of the 19-year-old from Swanmore, along with the bodies of three of her colleagues were flown back to Britain last week after the four were killed in a roadside bomb near Basra.
Wiltshire Coroner David Masters, sitting in Salisbury, opened and adjourned the inquest until a date to be fixed.
