How/why did he die?
Sounds like a car accident or something.
Unfortunate.
Suicide, and unfortunately this is 3rd soldier that I knew, that has died on that base.
This guy here Dakota Stump, was labeled as a deserter, but he was later found on the base in his car, off in some brush, deceased. Which I hardly find believable.

Says here a car accident.
Nice to read how the military treated his family. But its not surprising. You are a piece of meat. In the Army? A bullet catcher.
If you sign up thinking that you'll be part of this happy family you are a fool.
Well in the beginning they refused to look for him, called him a deserter and treated his mom poorly. He was found like 2 weeks later, after I believe it was a black hawk spotted a disturbance in the vegetation, from the sky during training. He was found nearly decapitated in the brush in his car, on base right after exit booth.
I have to agree my child was almost killed twice by stupid mistakes done by others... He is 100% disabled according to their ratings, yet has to remain as a reserve for like 6 more years.
