The Pentagon on Thursday identified an airman who died while deployed as part of Operation Inherent Resolve as SSgt. Alexandria Mae Morrow of Dansville, N.Y. Morrow, 25, was deployed to an undisclosed location in southwest Asia as part of the 366th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron out of Mountain Home AFB, Idaho. She died while performing maintenance duties, according to a Pentagon statement. Mountain Home, on its Facebook page, said Morrow sustained a fatal injury while “executing her duties as a weapons loader.” “Those who knew her valued her love of life and art, her leadership, her skills and her passion,” the statement said.
