Their Story
A Active Duty member of the NAVY ? SEAL TEAM TEN ? serving as PO1, Nelson, Caleb Andrew was 26 and came from OMAHA, NE.
On October 1, 2011, he died in QALAT, 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 NAVY 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.
