Dean Wyman
July 6, 1956 — November 10, 2021
Dean Wesley Wyman received his last set of wings on the day of our Lord, 10 November 2021. He was born in Houston, TX on 6 July 1956.
Dean proudly served as a member of the 3rd Special Forces Group spending three tours in Haiti as a SF medic (commonly referred to as a "Green Beret") eagerly assisting the Haitians and his fellow service members. He then transferred to the "puzzle palace" to teach young SF medics. Several of these brave men are still actively serving today to protect and serve the United States of America and to de oppresso liber. Prior to becoming a SF medic, he was honored to be a part of the 247th Medical Detachment Unit located at Ft. Irwin, CA where he received three Sikorsky awards for saving life, limb and/or eyesight as a flight medic. While serving in this capacity he had the amazing opportunity to contribute as a member of the support crew for the NASA Space Shuttle. His other accomplishments included providing medical training post 9/11 as the Director of Medical Training to new Federal Air Marshal officers. Later, he continued his service to our country fighting terrorism by serving multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan providing medical support for Protective Security Detail for the Department of State and Department of Defense for Blackwater (now known as Academi) and other similar companies. Immediately prior to Dean's death, he was actively engaged in activities to support underserved veterans under his corporation, Ratel Group, Inc. The family will continue these activities as appropriate.
He is preceded in death by his father, Charles Edward Wyman, who also proudly served in the United States Army. Dean is survived by his mother, Carroll Lee Wyman of Kerrville, TX, his brother, Lee Jay Wyman of Everett, WA, his daughter, Valarie Rachelle Reilly of Edgemoor, SC, his two sons, Bradley Garrett Wyman and Zachery Robert Wyman of Wilmington, NC, and two grandchildren.
