The Air Force Academy said a cadet suddenly died on Monday after he collapsed while walking to class.

Cadet 3rd Class Hunter Brown, 21, was walking to class from his dorm when he experienced a "medical emergency," the Air Force Academy said in a statement. Monday was the first day of class following the winter break.

First responders performed lifesaving measures, but Brown ultimately passed away. Officials have not yet determined a cause of death.

His roomate, and 2 teammates said that Brown had "no prior health issues" of which they were aware.

Brown was a sophomore member of the Air Force Falcons football team. He played on the offensive line and appeared in two games during the 2022 season.

The Air Force Academy said cadets were notified of Brown's sudden death on Tuesday:

“What’s tge local policy.”

The Academy is currently under HPCON Alpha.

Maintain your routine actions but also:

Routinely clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.

If you’re sick, call your medical provider for instructions on receiving care before going to a clinic or hospital. Make sure your installation is aware of the symptoms of your health threat.

Stay informed by routinely checking reliable sources of information such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and your local public health agencies.

The first sentence of the HPCON answers part of your questions. They are not being forced into a mask unless the HPCON status changes for the worse, and no administrative or disciplinary actions will be taken against cadets who do not receive the vaccine. An example of the shedding of the mask is at the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia where the area has low community levels of COVID-19, and masks are no longer required indoors. The use of the mask is generally a decision of the commander at each location but the lack of donning is a tell tale that the military is using sickness and control rather than forced prevention.
