Death Army Staff Sgt. Anthony Bermudez
Died January 11, 2021 Serving During Operation Spartan Shield
28, of Dallas, died Jan. 11, 2021, in a routine troop movement near Camp Buehring, Kuwait, in support of Operation Spartan Shield. Two other soldiers were injured in the same incident. The cause of the accident is under investigation.

-------

One soldier died and two others were injured during a routine troop movement near Camp Buehring, Kuwait, at about 8 a.m. on Jan. 11, according to Army Central Command.

Staff Sgt. Anthony Bermudez, 28, of Dallas, was identified by the Army as the soldier killed in the incident.

The accident occurred in a commercial vehicle, not a Humvee or tactical vehicle, though the soldiers were on duty, according to Army Central spokesman Col. Armando Hernandez.

One of the two injured soldiers, a passenger in the vehicle, was transported to Al Jahra Hospital in Kuwait before they were brought by helicopter to U.S. Military Hospital–Kuwait for further evaluation and treatment, according to an Army Central press release. The soldier was in stable condition as of Tuesday.

The second injured solider was the driver of the vehicle, according to the release. That soldier was transported to U.S. Military Hospital–Kuwait immediately and discharged Tuesday after treatment for non-serious injuries.

The cause of the accident was not released and the entire incident is still being investigated, Hernandez said.

The names of the two injured soldiers are being withheld in compliance with HIPAA requirements and privacy concerns, the release stated.

“Our deepest condolences go out to the family and friends of Staff Sgt. Bermudez,” said Lt. Col. Randy McClendon, Base Support Battalion–Kuwait commander, in a statement. “Anthony was a vital asset to our team, a dedicated professional, and his service will not be forgotten.”

Bermudez was a small-arms and artillery repairer who enlisted in 2011. He attended basic training at Fort Jackson, South Carolina, and advanced training at Fort Sam Houston, Texas.

Bermudez had been deployed to Kuwait since June. This was his first overseas tour

Died April 26, 2021 Serving During Operation Inherent Resolve
55, of Richmond, Virginia, died April 26, 2021, at Ali Al Salem Air Base, Kuwait, as the result of a non-combat related incident. Pantos was a heavy wheeled vehicle operator assigned to the 55th Sustainment Brigade at Fort Belvoir, Virginia. The incident is under investigation.

-------

The Defense Department on Wednesday released the name of an Army Reserve soldier who died Monday in Kuwait while supporting Operation Inherent Resolve.

Army Staff Sgt. Christopher Pantos, 55, “died...at Ali Al Salem Air Base, Kuwait, as the result of a non-combat related incident,” according to the DoD release. “The incident is under investigation.” Pantos was a heavy wheeled vehicle operator from Richmond, Virginia, assigned to the 55th Sustainment Brigade at Fort Belvoir, Virginia.

His commanders reflected on his loss in a press release provided by the 377th Theater Sustainment Command.

“We lost a valued member of our team,” said Brig. Gen. Justin M. Swanson, commandeer of the 310th Sustainment Command. “[Pantos] served with distinction as a Citizen Soldier and is an inspiration to everyone around him.”

“Just last month I had the opportunity to meet with Christopher, and he spoke with me about his passion for life and his mission overseas,” said Swanson. “Our deepest condolences go to his family and friends during their time of loss and grief.”

His company commander, Capt. Joshua Cameron, described him as “a knowledgable and dedicated noncommissioned officer who volunteered to deploy in service to this nation.”

A Tuesday press release from U.S. Army Central stated that Pantos was found dead in his living quarters on Monday morning.

An Army official told Military Times the soldier “was supporting joint operations including air logistics.”

Service records show that Pantos enlisted in March 2007. He deployed to Afghanistan in 2011.

Pantos, who was posthumously promoted, worked for the United States Postal Service in his civilian career. He also volunteered regularly as a tour guide at the Military Aviation Museum in Virginia Beach.

His individual decorations include the Army Commendation Medal and Army Achievement Medal, in addition to numerous service medals.

Ali Al Salem Air Base is home to the Air Force’s 386th Air Expeditionary Wing and serves as “the primary airlift hub and gateway for delivering combat power to joint and coalition forces” in the Middle East, according to the unit’s website.

A Louisiana National Guard soldier has died from a noncombat incident at Al-Tanf Garrison in Syria last month, though military officials declined to disclose what happened.

First Sgt. Casey J. Hart, 42, of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, died Tuesday at Walter Reed Medical Center in Maryland after suffering a medical emergency May 9 in Syria.

Hart was assigned to the 256th Infantry Brigade Combat Team out of Lafayette. He also worked as a patrol officer for the Baton Rouge Police Department.

Louisiana National Guard spokesperson Maj. Noel Collins said the incident that took Hart’s life is under investigation and declined to provide further details.

The WAFB television station in Louisiana reported that Hart went into a cardiac arrest while running last month.

A GoFundMe page was set up to help pay for his medical care and had raised more than $27,000 as of Thursday.

Hart leaves behind a wife and young daughter, according to the Baton Rouge Police Department.

“Corporal Hart is a 14-year veteran of the police department and was assigned as a Uniformed Patrol Officer at 3rd District,” said Baton Rouge Police Chief Murphy Paul in a statement posted to Facebook.

“We extend our deepest sympathy to Corporal Hart’s friends and family, especially his wife, Keri, his daughter, and all those he touched through his life and service,” Paul added.

Hart was posted in Syria at a small garrison near the Iraq-Syria border known as Al-Tanf, where special operations forces have spent their time training a proxy force known as Maghaweir Thowra.

The commander of an Air Force Red Horse squadron has died while deployed to Qatar in support of Operation Inherent Resolve, the Defense Department announced Sunday.

Lt. Col. James C. Willis, 55, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, was found dead at 7:30 a.m. June 26 at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, according to a U.S. Air Forces Central news release. The noncombat-related incident is under investigation.

Willis commanded the New Mexico Air National Guard’s 210th Rapid Engineer Deployable Heavy Operational Repair Squadron Engineers out of Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico.

Clifford Theony, 1st Expeditionary Civil Engineer Group commander. “We have put every resource available to supporting James’ friends, family and the unit as a whole during this most difficult time. He was a valued member of our team, and will be deeply missed.”

Prior to his current assignment, Willis commanded the 150th Civil Engineer Flight where he had responsibility for New Mexico Air National Guard facilities and the Domestic Prime Power mission. Before that he served as environmental officer for the 150th.

A 1993 graduate of Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, California, where he majored in electrical engineering, Willis received his commission from Officer Training School in 2002. He has deployed to contingencies in Israel, the Republic of Korea, the United States Virgin Islands, and numerous locations in the United States for construction projects, disaster relief, and weapons of mass destruction training and response.

“The New Mexico National Guard is saddened to learn of the loss of Lt. Col. James Willis,” the Guard said in a statement. “Our heartfelt condolences go out to his family and friends. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.”
