The MARINE CORPS, 1ST MSOB, CAMP PENDLETON, CA, sent Sprovtsoff, Nicholas Adam of DAVISON, MI, then 28, ? SSGT ? to Afghanistan, Philippines, Horn of Africa.

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 MARINE CORPS 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.
