Their Story
LCPL Deeds, Roger Wayne, 24 years old, grew up in BILOXI, MS and served as Active Duty in the MARINE CORPS with F CO, 2D BN, 1ST MAR, 1ST MAR DIV, CAMP PENDLETON, CA during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
On November 16, 2005, the MARINE CORPS lost LCPL Deeds, Roger Wayne in UBAYDI, IRAQ. He was 24. The MARINE CORPS recorded the cause as 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 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.
