A 21-year-old soldier from Texas was killed Friday in southwestern Afghanistan, Pentagon officials announced Saturday night.

The Defense Department has been silent on the topic, referring questions to the White House.

The attack took place on the 1st SFAB's first deployment to Afghanistan.

Five airmen belonging to a C-130 crew conducting the airdrop in Afghanistan were given the Air Force Combat Action Medal.

First Lt. Trevarius Ravon Bowman died Tuesday at Bagram Air Base in a non-combat related incident.

It started as a routine nighttime airdrop mission last fall for five airmen aboard a C-130 Hercules .

The U.S. still plans to draw down 8,600 troops in Afghanistan by July.

Lt. Gen. Austin "Scott" Miller fought in the Battle of Mogadishu and has overseen Army Ranger School.

U.S. Air Forces Central Command has stopped publicizing monthly reports on the number of airstrikes and bombs dropped.
