I thought I saw the number of 24 soldiers have died but whatever the number is, it’s very high and we still have four months remaining in 2020.Another Soldier Dies at Fort Hood, Marking 28th Death There This Year

A25-year-old Fort Hood soldier from New Mexico died on Wednesday after collapsing during training last week.
The soldier, whom Fort Hood officials identified as Pvt. Corlton Chee, is the 28th to die at the Army base in Texas this year, according to records obtained by the Associated Press.
“Our team is devastated by the loss of Pvt. Chee,” Lt. Col. Ron Sprang, the commander of the 2nd Battalion 12th Cavalry Regiment, said in a news release announcing Chee’s death. “Corlton was an amazing Trooper and so full of life and potential.”
The soldier was from Pine Hill New Mexico. That is on the Navajo reservation.
