Their Story
The ARMY, 1ST SQUADRON (AIR), 17TH CAVALRY, 82D AVIATION BRIGADE, FORT BRAGG, NC 28307, sent Hampton, Kimberly Nicole of GREENVILLE, SC, then 27, ? CPT ? to Iraq.
Killed on January 2, 2004 in FALLUJAH, IRAQ ? HOSTILE ?, Hampton, Kimberly Nicole was one of the 4418 Americans the country lost in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
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 ARMY classified her death as "HOSTILE" ? a category that matters to the families who must make sense of it. Her name is documented in the Defense Casualty Analysis System at https://dcas.dmdc.osd.mil/dcas/app/conflictCasualties/oif.
