Their Story
SPC Humble, Joshua Ut, 21 years old, grew up in APPLETON, ME and served as Active Duty in the ARMY with TROOP A, 1ST SQUADRON, 71ST CAVALRY, 1ST BCT, 10TH MTN (4ID), FORT DRUM, NY during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
He did not survive OIF. The ARMY recorded his death on February 26, 2006 in BAGHDAD, IRAQ, from 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.
