The Army is investigating Graham's death. There was no immediate indication that foul play was involved.

Graham was a human resources specialist who was stationed at Fort Bliss in December after completing basic combat training at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri, officials said.

She was assigned to the 1st Armored Division Combat Aviation Brigade, also known as the Iron Eagle team.

\"The Iron Eagle team is deeply saddened by the loss of our friend and teammate. We send our deepest condolences and prayers to her friends and loved ones,” Col. Geoffrey Whittenberg, commander of the division, said in a statement.

“Pfc. Graham was a valued member of the Iron Eagle team and did an outstanding job for this Battalion,\" Wittenberg added. \"Her loss is felt not just in our formations but across the Army. We lost a skilled human resource specialist who wanted nothing more than to serve her country and her battle buddies.\"

Graham enlisted Army in July 2019 and in her short career received the National Defense Service Medal, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, and the Army Service Ribbon, military officials said.

ABC News' Matthew Fuhrman contributed to this report.
