Jennifer had an honorable military career that spanned over 15 years of service. She first entered the military in 2000 as a signal Soldier. Jennifer was selected to become a Signal Warrant Officer and graduated from Warrant Officer Basic Course in 2010. Throughout the next five years, Jennifer accomplished incredible tasks. She attended the COMP TIA Advanced Security Practitioner Certification Course in which she was 1 of 2 Soldiers who successfully completed the course. This course has a 68% first time fail rate. This highlights Jennifer’s professionalism, drive, expertise, and ability to quickly grasp complex concepts.

	While assigned to the Raider Brigade, she displayed amazing leadership while leading a cross-functional section that consisted of logistical, signal and medical personnel. She was able to successfully manage and navigate an Army directive, which completely transformed the Brigade's Logistics Information Systems by converting from SARSS, a legacy system to GCSS-Army, which was no small undertaking. Her steadfast conviction and technical expertise led to a successful conversion that positively affected the brigade’s ability to deploy anywhere, anytime, and under any condition.
	Jennifer also planned and led the brigade's first STAMIS Gunnery, which ensured that every STAMIS in the BDE was 100% functional and maintained connectivity to ensure the brigade was able to execute uninterrupted sustainment operations. 
During her tenure, Jennifer, oversaw more than 560 Logistics Information System Trouble tickets. Her talents were present by ensuring each trouble ticket was resolved in a timely manner and to standard.
	Jennifer’s accomplishments were many and during her career, she was awarded the following medals and awards as a testament to her outstanding performance and leadership. She was awarded the Bronze Star Medal, Meritorious Service Medal (1 OLC), Army Commendation Medal, Army Achievement Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Meritorious Unit Citation, Army Good Conduct Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Iraq Campaign Medal, Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary, and Global War on Terrorism Service Medal.
Jennifer’s personal accomplishments were just as exemplary as her military service. Jennifer was born 21 December 1978 in Okinawa, Japan. She comes from a family with a steep tradition of military service and is a 4rd generation to serve in the Armed Forces. In fact, her son is currently serving as the 5th generation and carrying on the proud tradition for her family. Jennifer was extremely strong willed and aggressively attacked all of her tasks with a smile. It was an honor to work with Jennifer. She was the type of person that made you want to be a better leader, Soldier, and person. 
She greatly influenced the section and left a lasting impression on the Brigade, her efforts and contributions have made 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team better.
	It is with deep sadness that we say goodbye, but I am thankful for the opportunity to offer my sincere condolences to Jennifer’s family. Jennifer is survived by her father and mother Craig and Donna (Clayman) Kleman, her brother Jonathan Klemen, her husband Byron Hunter and two sons Anthony and Adriane and grandson Ryan Gabriel. I wish you comfort in the knowledge that Jennifer is now free from pain and in a peaceful place.
	Ralph Waldo Emerson once wrote, it is not the length of life, but the depth. It is with great confidence that I say, Jennifer lived a rich and meaningful life; she was a great person, Soldier, and friend who will be deeply missed and long remembered.
