The Department of Defense announced today the death of a soldier who was supporting Operation Freedom’s Sentinel.
Sgt. First Class Stephen B. Cribben, 33, of Simi Valley, California, died Nov. 4 in Logar Province, Afghanistan as a result of wounds sustained while engaged in combat operations. He was assigned to 2d Battalion, 10th Special Forces Group, Fort Carson, Colorado. The incident is under investigation.
“Steve was a great man, Green Beret, and father to his children,” said a fellow service member from the special operations community wrote. “He was one of the hardest working men I have ever had the pleasure of serving with. Please say a prayer tonight for those he left behind as he was selflessly defending liberty and undoubtedly protecting his teammates. ”
“Stephen leaves behind his wife Shelly and two sons, Connor (age 5) and Wyatt (age 3),”according to a close freind who created a GoFundMe page on behalf of Cribben’s wife. “Shelly is a stay at home mom who puts all of her energy into chasing after and caring for her two boys. She is a very active participant in her church as well as being a supportive military spouse in the SOF community.”
