    Airman 1st Class Elizabeth Jacobson, a defender assigned to the 17th Security Forces Squadron at Goodfellow Air Force Base from 2003-2005, was deployed with the 586th Expeditionary SFS at Camp Bucca, Iraq. On Sept. 28, 2005, at the age of 21, Jacobson was killed when an improvised explosive device struck her convoy. She was the first security forces Airman and the first female service member to die in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Her bravery has since been memorialized at bases all over the world.
