Their Story
The MARINE CORPS, F CO, 2D BN, 1ST MAR, RCT-1, 1ST MAR DIV, CAMP PENDLETON, CA, sent Ebert, Christopher Stephen of MOORESBORO, NC, then 21, ? CPL ? to Iraq.
He did not survive OIF. The MARINE CORPS recorded his death on September 17, 2004 in AL ANBAR PROVINCE, IRAQ, from HOSTILE.
In the first year of occupation, military victory gave way to an insurgency the US hadn't planned for. Disbanding the Iraqi army created a vacuum. Armed groups filled it immediately.
The members of F CO, 2D BN, 1ST MAR, RCT-1, 1ST MAR DIV, CAMP PENDLETON, CA who served alongside him carry his memory. His record in DCAS documents his service and sacrifice during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
