7/1/2011 - JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO, Texas (AFNS) -- Air Force officials at Lackland Air Force Base have announced the death of Basic Trainee Megan J. Victory, who died at Brooke Army Medical Center June 30.
"The entire Air Force family and every member of Lackland AFB send their condolences to the family and friends of Airman Victory," said Col. Eric Axelbank, the 37th Training Wing commander.
"Losing a family member is very difficult," he said. "The Victory family and the Air Force family are both grieving this very tragic loss. Our hearts go out to her family, friends and colleagues."
Victory fell ill the morning of June 23 and was transported by ambulance to Wilford Hall Medical Center at Lackland AFB then to Brooke Army Medical Center at nearby Fort Sam Houston for a higher level of care due to the seriousness of her illness. The 22-year-old Airman was from Albers, Ill, and arrived at Lackland AFB for basic military training May 16. Her family was by her side when she died.
