Nicole Gee was a 23-year-old U.S. Marine from Sacramento, California, who lost her life on August 26, 2021, while helping evacuate civilians during the mission at Kabul Airport in Afghanistan. Just days earlier, she shared a photo and wrote, "I love my job," reflecting the pride and dedication she had for serving others.
In her final days, Nicole was seen caring for Afghan children and assisting families seeking safety. Her compassion, courage, and commitment to helping people left a lasting impact on those around her. Today, we honor her service and remember the sacrifice she made in the line of duty. Her legacy of selfless service will not be forgotten. 🇺🇸❤️
