SPC Pierce, Robert Allan, 20 years old, grew up in PANAMA, OK and served as Active Duty in the ARMY with COMPANY A, 1ST BATTALION, 506TH INFANTRY REGIMENT, 4 BCT, FORT CAMPBELL, KY during Operation Enduring Freedom.
Killed on June 3, 2013 in TSAMKANI, AFGHANISTAN ? HOSTILE ?, Pierce, Robert Allan was one of the 2356 Americans the country lost in Operation Enduring Freedom.
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.
