His first deployment was in Iraq; the second deployment was in Afghanistan in/near Kandahar; and his third deployment was in Afghanistan at an FOB near the Pakistani border. SPC Guptill’s most recent duty was Route Clearance Patrol – the first to encounter the threat of potential improvised explosive devices – one of the most dangerous jobs, and included the recovery of casualties.
