As sad as this is, I don't believe this person is notable and feels like a case of WP:NOTNEWS and WP:VICTIM Gbawden (talk) 14:12, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The profile is significant simply because of the subject's considerable service for the United States forces. Furthermore, and in accordance with Wikipedia's Woman of the Year, it is important to note that women's deaths in the military are especially invisible. The article looks to acknowledge service of a military personnel and acknowledge women presence and service in the military. We are trying to continue to work and build on it.

I admire your concern in this area, however in the case of this person she doesn't meet the standards of notability as seen here: WP:BIO. Unfortunately just serving in the military is not enough to justify an article. It was a tragic accident that killed her, however that also is not notable enough of an event.
