Belizean born US soldier, Adrienne Barrillas was buried in Belize on Tuesday with a full US military honours. It made for quite an unusual scene at St. Joseph's Church where she had also gone to school as a child. Her casket also arrived in Belize with a full US Army escort.
In late September, 22 year old Barrillas died under still unknown circumstances at a US military base in Seoul, South Korea where she was stationed.
The report from the US military only said that she was found unresponsive and that her death was being investigated by the army's Criminal Investigation Command.
Barillas had arrived in South Korea in 2017, as a water treatment specialist.
In a brief military career, she had earned the Army Achievement Medal, National Defense Service Medal and Army Service Ribbon.
