Their Story
The ARMY, 696TH FORWARD SUPPORT COMPANY, 168TH BRIGADE SUPPORT BATTALION, 214TH FIRES BRIGADE, FORT SILL, OK, sent Ozbat, Jesse Aaron of PRINCE GEORGE, VA, then 28, ? CPT ? to Afghanistan, Philippines, Horn of Africa.
On May 20, 2012, he died in TARIN KOWT, 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.
