Their Story
Ivy, Kendall Howard Ii was 28 and from GALION, OH when he joined the Active Duty, MARINE CORPS, HQ CO, RCT-2, 2D MAR DIV, CAMP LEJEUNE, NC as SSGT. Operation Iraqi Freedom would take his life.

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 MARINE CORPS 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.
