Ciara Marie Durkin (July 6, 1977 – September 28, 2007) was an American soldier who died while serving in Afghanistan. Born in Ireland, she was the first openly lesbian soldier to die in Operation Enduring Freedom. Her death was initially misreported as a result of combat. A lack of information surrounding the details of her death quickly caused controversy when connections were drawn between her death and sexual orientation. Durkin's death was later ruled a suicide, leading to conversations about the dangers of false reporting and the wider narrative regarding suicide among members of the military.
