Army Spc. Christine Ndururi, 21, died from a non combat related illness at Camp Arifjan, Kuwait on November 6, 2007. Spc. Ndururi was supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom on behalf of the 4th Squadron, 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment in Fort Hood, Texas. At the time of the press release, the Department of Defense announced that Christine’s death was under investigation.

“She has not been sick,” Ndururi’s father, Wilson Wachira, 45, said yesterday at the family’s home.  “I’m waiting for them to tell me what happened. She was not ill, unless she was ill after 9 o’clock when she talked to her mother. Before she was deployed there, she had to have a medical checkup.” ~Eagle Tribune
