Wright, David Timothy Ii

David Timothy Wright II, holding the rank of First Lieutenant in the United States Army, served with Company B, 2nd Battalion, 1st Infantry, 5th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, based at Fort Lewis, Washington. Born in Moore, Oklahoma, Wright embarked on his military career with a commitment to service.

During Operation Enduring Freedom, which began in October 2001 as a response to the September 11 attacks, Wright was deployed to Afghanistan, a region mired in conflict as part of the international efforts to dismantle terrorist networks. The complex operations in this area often involved significant risk.

On September 14, 2009, Wright's life was tragically cut short in Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan. The Department of Defense reported his death as resulting from hostile action, a stark reminder of the ongoing dangers faced by military personnel in conflict zones.

His loss is a solemn reflection of the sacrifices made by many during Operation Enduring Freedom, which continued until its conclusion in December 2014. Wright's service and dedication are remembered by those who knew him and the broader community.

As a soldier, Wright's commitment to his country was unwavering, and his passing is mourned by family, friends, and fellow service members. His story is one of duty and honor, echoed in the lives of many who served alongside him.

Operation Enduring Freedom, involving US and coalition forces, concluded in December 2014 after over 13 years of military operations. See the full roster of those killed in this conflict.
