CPL Isabel Rios, 33, U.S. Army, born in Texas July 8, 1928, passed away in a car accident on July 16, 1961. Rios served with 13th Engineer Combat Battalion, 7th Infantry Division, and deployed to fight in the Korean War. Nearing the end of the conflict, his unit helped repair the war-ravaged infrastructure, build fortifications, and lay and clear minefields, frequently while under fire. Rios and his Company's efforts were absolutely crucial to sustaining combat operations and protecting our troops on the frontlines. Rest easy, Soldier! Til Valhalla, Brother!
