Sole Survivor Policy

A recent case occurred in 2011. Jeremy, Ben and Beau Wise served in active combat roles in the Afghan War. Jeremy, a former Navy SEAL, was at a CIA base as a military contractor and was killed in 2009 when a suicide bomber attacked the base. Later in 2011, Ben, an Army Special Forces combat medic, was seriously wounded in Afghanistan and died of his injuries at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center. Beau was deployed in Afghanistan with the Marines at that time and was immediately relieved of combat duties and returned to the United States.
