AIR FORCE ACADEMY, COLO. -- An Air Force Academy cadet died Tuesday while on summer break in Las Vegas.

Cadet 2nd Class Yung C. Chin, a junior, was a member of the Class of 2014 and a biology major.

"Our Air Force Academy family suffered a tragic loss this week," Academy Commandant of Cadets, Brig. Gen. Richard Clark, said in a statement. "We ask everyone to please keep Yung's family, friends and wingmen in your thoughts and prayers."

The cause of death is under investigation, and the Academy will release more information as it becomes available.

Yet another 2 degree from CS-10. His funeral was held today in Vegas and a taps vigil was held on Thursday night. Rough time for tiger ten.

Later,
