Paige Renee Villers of Norton, Ohio, died at Wilford Hall Medical Center in San Antonio. A recruit had not died in basic training since 2002. Citing family privacy, the Air Force declined to provide an official statement about Villers’ death. Villers was initially admitted to Wilford Hall in the spring. Confined to a wheelchair and on a ventilator, Villers nevertheless graduated from basic training in July. Although she experienced a short period of recovery, she soon relapsed, according to Air Edu- cation and Training Command officials. A memorial service at Lackland took place on Aug. 9 and was attended by Air Force leadership, including CMSAF An F-15 takes off from Nellis AFB, Nev., in September during Joint Forces Com- Rodney J.
