Their Story

From EAST PEORIA, IL, GYSGT Ball, Terry Wayne Jr, serving with I CO, 3D BN, 8TH MAR, (RCT-8), 2D MAR DIV, CAMP LEJEUNE, NC, was 36 years old when he deployed with the MARINE CORPS to Iraq.

August 5, 2005 ? Ball, Terry Wayne Jr died in BETHESDA, UNITED STATES, HOSTILE. The Department of Defense confirmed his death in 2005.

The years 2005?2007 were OIF's deadliest. Sectarian violence surged after the 2006 bombing of the al-Askari shrine in Samarra. American troops were caught between militias, insurgents, and a government that barely functioned.

The MARINE CORPS classified his death as "HOSTILE" ? a category that matters to the families who must make sense of it. His name is documented in the Defense Casualty Analysis System at https://dcas.dmdc.osd.mil/dcas/app/conflictCasualties/oif.
