Nicole Gee, 23, was one of 13 service members who were killed during a suicide blast at the Kabul Airport in 2021, per Daily Mail. There were also 170 Afghans reportedly killed in the attack that ISIS took responsibility for.
The attack took place on August 26, during an evacuation attempt near the US embassy.

Talk about a travesty.
