Their Story
SSGT Dupre, Danny Paul, 28 years old, grew up in LOCKPORT, LA and served as Active Duty in the MARINE CORPS with C CO, 1ST BN, 9TH MAR, (RCT-1, I MEF FWD), 2D MARDIV, CAMP LEJEUNE, NC during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
On July 15, 2008, the MARINE CORPS lost SSGT Dupre, Danny Paul in BALAD, IRAQ. He was 28. The MARINE CORPS recorded the cause as HOSTILE.
In the later years of OIF, the surge had reduced violence significantly. But Americans continued to die ? IEDs, snipers, crashes ? as the mission shifted toward transition and withdrawal.
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.
