MAJ US Army
He was the youngest of seven children of an impoverished family that immigrated to El Paso, TX from Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico. He graduated from the University of Texas at El Paso, received a master's degree from Texas Tech University, and his doctorate from the University of Arizona. He worked as a teacher and at the Federal Bureau of Prisons and had a private practice in Woodbridge, VA. He served in the National Guard for ten years and was assigned for one year at Camp X-Ray in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. He was preparing for his first deployment into a combat zone with a support unit that helped soldiers deal with the stresses of war. He had only arrived at Fort Hood on Wednesday to finish up paperwork before heading for Afghanistan. He was one of 300 soldiers who were lined up to get shots and eye-testing at the Soldier Readiness Center at Fort Hood when shots rang out. The soldiers were processing to either return from or go out on deployment. A disgruntled US Army psychiatrist killed 13 people and injured more than 30 others before he was brought down.
Interment on November 25, 2009.
