    173rd Airborne Brigade

    Pfc. Chris Pfeifer, killed September 25, 2007, during a combat patrol, was posthumously awarded the Bronze Star with Valor. He was remembered by his peers for his compassion and dedication to the mission.

    Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) in Afghanistan spanned from 2005 to 2013, with multiple deployments across that period. The 173rd Airborne Brigade, lost 82 paratroopers—young paratroopers who deployed from Europe into some of the most remote and dangerous terrain in the world, never to return.
