52 year old female reservist killed in Kabul, oldest female soldier to be killed in either Afghanistan or Iraq.


Don't you just love it, Georgie AWOL Cheney 5 DEFERMENTS, and this 52 year old Lady dies for a pack of LIES. Wonder what Georgie and Cheneys Girls are doing not serving their Nation that is for sure. Sgt. 1st Class Merideth Howard loved being near water, whether it was off the coast of Mexico or Hawaii, or even her hometown.

Howard, a former Corpus Christi resident, was killed Friday in Kabul, Afghanistan, after a car bomber smashed into an American Humvee carrying 15 other people. Howard and another U.S. soldier were killed in the attack, the Afghan capital’s deadliest suicide attack since the 2001 toppling of the Taliban.

Susan Utley, 53, another of Howard’s cousins, said Howard was always optimistic but was uneasy about her deployment to Afghanistan.

Howard joined the Army Reserves in 1988 but never expected her unit to be called up, Utley said.

"Her joining the reserves was kind of a spur-of-the-moment thing," Utley said, adding that Howard received much of her training a short time before she was deployed.

"She thought it was a bad idea for her unit to go," Utley said. "She turned out to be right."
