The Pentagon announced Sunday that A1C Carl Jerome Ware Jr., 22, of Glassboro, N.J., had died July 1 from a non-combat related cause at Camp Bucca, Iraq. The airman was deployed to Iraq from the 15th Security Forces Squadron, Hickam AFB, Hawaii. The death is under investigation.
The Air Force plans to conduct more intensive training—and Congress is set to help by boosting funding for exercises and so-called “campaigning” by hundreds of millions of dollars, particularly in the Pacific.
