Their Story
A Active Duty member of the ARMY ? STB, V CORPS, HEIDELBERG, GERMANY 69124 ? serving as SSG, Tieman, Richard James was 28 and came from WAYNESBORO, PA.
On May 18, 2010, he died in DARULAMAN, KABUL ? 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.
