Their Story
Muhr, Shawn Andrew of COON RAPIDS, IA, 26 years old, served in the ARMY with 546TH TRANSPORTATION CO, 330TH TRANS BN, 82D SUSTAINMENT BDE, FORT BRAGG, NC at the rank of SPC ? one of the Americans deployed to Afghanistan, Philippines, Horn of Africa.
On January 29, 2011, he died in 10 KM NE OF BUDWAN, AFGHANISTAN ? HOSTILE ?. His name entered the Defense Casualty Analysis System that day.
In the final years of OEF, a surge had been deployed and drawn down. The Taliban had outlasted every strategy. The Afghan army the US built would collapse six years after OEF ended.
The ARMY classified his death as "HOSTILE" ? a category that matters to the families who must make sense of it. His name is documented in the Defense Casualty Analysis System at https://dcas.dmdc.osd.mil/dcas/app/conflictCasualties/oef.
