SGT NICOLE GEE KIA 26 AUG 2021

Thank you Emergency Airlift, for working with us to provide Sgt. Nicole Gee KIA 26 AUG 2021 a private plane to her final resting place. It was an honor to work with your team and fly with you to get her to her family.

Sgt. Gee, was brought to Washington DC from California for interment at Arlington National Cemetery.

As a member of a female engagement team with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit, Sgt. Nicole Gee was providing a vital skill set during the United States’ chaotic final withdrawal from Afghanistan. She was there to communicate with and facilitate support for Afghan women and children.

“Nicole was out in front with all of us [infantry Marines] unwavering in the face of the unknown,” Rowdy Woods, an infantry Marine who served with Gee at HKIA wrote on Facebook. “She always had a positive attitude and strived to put a smile on everyone’s face. Just two days before the blast we were cutting it up when she was helping us boys out at the East gate. She was there to search the women and children for us but that night she was helping us prepare for an attack that we knew would eventually come. Nicole loved what she was doing out here and she knew the risks. She did it anyway because she is, and forever will be, one badass Marine.”

Please pray for family as they prepare to lay their hero to rest later this week.
