Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Randall Smith died two days after a gunman opened fire at two military facilities, his step-grandmother Darlene Proxmire told the Daily News.
Smith, 26, was shot three times while working as a logistics specialist at the Navy Operational Support Center, where four Marines were slaughtered in a barrage of bullets, his family said.
The sailor succumbed to his wounds at 2:17 a.m. Saturday, days after he tried reassuring his wife Angie he was OK after undergoing surgery, the U.S. Navy and his family said.

Randall Smith, 24, died from a mass shooting at Chattanooga, Tenn., on July 18, 2015. Smith was a logistics specialist in the U.S. Navy at the time of the shooting by Mohammad Abdulazeez.
