It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we share the passing of one of our very own, CW4 Gabriel “Gabe” Zettel.

Gabe was more than a fellow Warrant Officer and member of our community; he was a friend, a brother, and someone whose kindness, dedication, and willingness to support others left a lasting impact on everyone fortunate enough to know him. His loss is deeply felt throughout the Warrant Officer family, and words cannot fully express how much he will be missed.

During this incredibly difficult time, we ask that you keep Gabe’s family, friends, and loved ones in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate this heartbreaking loss.

For those who would like to help, we have established a donation page to support the Zettel family. All donations will go directly toward supporting his family. Any contribution, no matter the amount, is sincerely appreciated.

Support the Zettel Family:

As a community, we have always stood together in times of celebration and in times of hardship. Now is a time to come together for Gabe and his family.

Rest in peace, Gabe. Your friendship, service, and legacy will never be forgotten. You will always remain a part of our Warrant Officer family.
