Their Story

A Active Duty member of the ARMY ? COMPANY C, 1ST BATTALION, 64TH ARMOR, 2 BCT, (3 ID), FORT STEWART, GA ? serving as SGT, Garcia, Javier Jesus was 25 and came from CRAWFORDVILLE, FL.

The date recorded for his death: April 5, 2005. Location: BAGHDAD, IRAQ. Cause: 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.
