Need Help- Regarding Contacting Military Personnel
Hi. I need information on how to contact or verify a casualty as it pertains to the war in Afghanistan.

I am an interpreter and just had a mother show up that received a phone call from another family member in the same area of Afghanistan stating that her son's car was blown up and they can not find him (the son).

I have no idea who to call and am completely at a loss.... Yes, I ask you guys because I am crazy-searching for something on here to help, and, you are on a tab.....

Please? Anything? Anyone?

Op, are you near a base? If you are, you can call the base operator and ask them to connect you to the casualty command post. They will have someone working 24/7. If the mother knows how to get hold of her son's 1st sgt. or another supervisor, they can do this for her. The message to the family comes from the Red Cross, so it may take some time to get to her. If you can't contact anyone else, you can try the Red Cross.

My husband used to do casualty assistance in the AF before they outsourced it. I'm not totally sure about procedures now, but I hope this helps. Good luck.

Yes, you need to get in contact with the 1st Sergeant as they handle all requests pertaining to those types of issues if you can't get through via the operator.

Bless you both- I am nowhere near it- he apparently was based in Hawaii and I am in Wisconsin- but, I can google it.

Bless you! Thanks so much!
