Sgt. Nicole Gee, 23, assigned to Combat Logistics Battalion 24, was killed August 26, 2021 in a suicide attack along with 12 other service members in Kabul, Afghanistan in support of the Afghanistan withdrawal. There, she served on a Female Engagement Team to facilitate evacuation support for Afghan women and children.

Sgt. Gee attended Oakmont High School in Roseville, CA. She enlisted in the Marine Corps in 2017 and was later assigned to Combat Logistics Battalion 24, where she provided maintenance on ground electronics transmission systems.

In her free time, Nicole enjoyed working out, going to the beach, traveling, baking, and spending time with family. She met her husband, Jarod Gee while in high school, and they were married in August 2016. They were stationed together at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, where they lived with their two dogs and close friends.

Less than a week prior to her death, Sgt. Gee made a social media post of her caring for an Afghan infant in which she remarked: “I love my job.”
