Army Staff Sgt. Melodie A. Hunt and Army Pfc. Mallorie A. Hunt, Lumberton N.C. natives, are sisters who are currently deployed to Baghdad. Although they serve in different units, they said, they still find time to get together.
“We were still in the states when we found out that Mallorie would be at the same place as me,” Melodie Hunt said. “It was pleasing to know that I would have someone there for me, and it made our parents more comfortable [with] us being together for my sister’s first deployment.”
Melodie Hunt, who is on her second deployment in her eight-year military career, works as a police officer for the Lumberton Police Department when at home. The Hunt sisters are 12 years apart, and they said they have this deployment to thank for strengthening their relationship.
