#19-year-old Fort Bliss soldier found dead in barracks

A 19-year-old Fort Bliss soldier was reportedly found dead Thursday on the Texas Army base.

Asia Graham, 19, a North Carolina native, was located inside her room in the barracks, officials told KHOU. 

It was not immediately clear how Graham died. An investigation into her death is ongoing, the news outlet reported. 

Graham, who joined the Army in July 2019, was assigned to the 1st Armored Division. 

Her division mourned her death in a Saturday Facebook post. 

“PFC Asia Graham was a valued member of the Iron Eagle Team,” the Combat Aviation Brigade of the 1st Armored Division wrote.

“Her loss is felt not just in our formations but across the Army. We lost a skilled human resource specialist who wanted nothing more than to serve her country and her battle buddies,” the statement said.
