Jacob Kovco
Jacob (Jake) Bruce Kovco (25 September 1980, Melbourne – 21 April 2006, Baghdad) was a Private (PTE) in the Australian Army who died while deployed in Iraq, fatally wounded by a single shot to the head from his own Browning 9mm sidearm. PTE Kovco was the first Australian soldier to die while deployed to the Middle East Area of Operations (MEAO). A military inquiry found that Kovco accidentally shot himself while mishandling his pistol, a conclusion which was disputed by his family. On 2 April 2008, a further Coronial inquest returned a similar verdict, finding that Kovco's death was "irresponsibly self-inflicted", and that when he pulled the trigger on his weapon he "disregarded the possible consequences of danger".〔(''Coroner's Court of NSW'' ), ''"Jake Kovko finding"''〕

Pte Kovco grew up in Briagolong and completed the Victoria Certificate of Education at Maffra Secondary College in 1998. Prior to enlisting in the army, Kovco worked in a knackery processing dead livestock. He was a keen mountain bike rider and also raced motorcycles.〔Chantal Rumble and Brendan Nicholson, (''Mates remember the boy who grew up to be a soldier'' ), ''The Age'', 24 April 2006〕 He was married to Shelley and they had 2 children, Tyrie and Alana
