Their Story
From FORESTPORT, NY, PV2 Huxley, Gregory Paul Jr, serving with COMPANY B 317TH ENGINEERING BATTALION, FORT BENNING, GEORGIA 31905, was 19 years old when he deployed with the ARMY to Iraq.
On April 6, 2003, he died in BAGHDAD, IRAQ ? HOSTILE ?. His name entered the Defense Casualty Analysis System that day.
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 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.
