Fort Hood leaders meet with Vanessa Guillen’s family, say gate will be named in her honor

The family of Spc. Vanessa Guillen visited Fort Hood, Texas, on Tuesday to see design concepts and survey the proposed site of a memorial gate that will be named in Guillen’s honor, according to the central Texas installation.

Guillen, a member of 3rd Cavalry Regiment, went missing April 22, sparking an extensive search that came to an end June 30, when her remains were discovered near the Leon River. Prosecutors now say Guillen was killed by a fellow soldier in an armory on post.

During the Tuesday visit, Guillen’s family met with the III Corps and Fort Hood commander, Lt. Gen. Pat White, and deputy commander, Maj. Gen. John Richardson.

It's too bad she died the way she did but there are a lot of Marines who have died in combat that deserve the honor more than she.  This is just PC.

Just what the US military needs to carry out their sworn mission of protecting the nation,professional vic-tums of their own poor decisions getting honored.
