Their Story
SSG Campos, Juan Francisco, 27 years old, grew up in MCALLEN, TX and served as Active Duty in the ARMY with COMPANY C, 1ST BATTALION, 26TH INFANTRY, SCHWEINFURT, GERMANY during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
He did not survive OIF. The ARMY recorded his death on June 1, 2007 in SAN ANTONIO, UNITED STATES, from HOSTILE.
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 ARMY 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.
