A twice-deployed warrant officer who served 27 years in uniform died Aug. 17 at a hospital near Fort Hood after a long illness, the installation announced Tuesday.

Chief Warrant Officer 4 Brian Keith Pinckney, 48, had been with 11th Military Police Battalion's criminal investigation division since August 2014, according to a Fort Hood news release. He joined the Army in 1989 and attended Warrant Officer Candidate School in 2003.

Pinckney deployed twice in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (2004-05, 2008-09). He earned a Bronze Star Medal, four Meritorious Service Medals, three Army Commendation Medals and four Army Achievement Medals, among other awards and decorations.

Details regarding his illness were not released by the installation or his family. A funeral service is set for Saturday in Winnie, Texas, and an online memorial has been established.

Thanks for sharing the sad news SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL that the Army confirmed that CW4 Brian Keith Pinckney died after a long illness on August 17. The only good news is that he wasn't killed and seems to have died a natural death.
Prayers for the family of Brian Keith Pinckney as they grieve.
