Young women are killed in "non-combat incidents" that are "under investigation" and rarely does any more information get released. If she had been killed by a gunshot wound to the chest outside a Wal-Mart in Aliceville, Ala. it would be "Police seek shooter in apparent homicide" or some such. But in the Army, in Afghanistan, it is a "non-combat incident."
Just look how many of these are "non-combat incidents"
