A registered nurse assigned to the 31st Combat Support Hospital has died in Iraq. The Department of Defense says Captain Gussie Jones, an Arkansas native, died of a heart attack Sunday in Baghdad. The 41-year-old was in the military for 15 years. She had been an Army nurse since 1998. William Beaumont Army Medical Center spokesman Clarence Davis says Jones was a devout member of the Abundant Living Faith Christian Center in El Paso, near Fort Bliss, and she enjoyed reaching Christian devotional journals, attending church services and cosmetology.
