Since September 11, 2001, how many SF members lost their lives in the Global War on Terror?

The events of September 11, 2001, led to a significant number of U.S. military personnel being deployed in various operations as part of the Global War on Terror. The number of Security Forces (SF) members who lost their lives during these operations reflects the sacrifices made by the Air Force and its contributions to homeland security and overseas military engagements.

The correct answer indicates that 15 SF members lost their lives in direct support of these operations, underlining the risks and challenges faced by Security Forces in their dedication to protecting national interests, both at home and abroad. This figure is significant in understanding the contributions made by SF personnel and honors those who made the ultimate sacrifice in carrying out their duties during a time of heightened conflict and uncertainty. The other options suggest a higher or lower number, which do not accurately represent the documented accounts of those who served and fell in these operations.
