Their Story
SSG Jackson, William Samuel Ii, 29 years old, grew up in SAGINAW, MI and served as Active Duty in the ARMY with COMPANY B, 16TH ENGINEER BATTALION, 1-1 AD (1 MEF), GIESSEN, GERMANY during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
The date recorded for his death: November 11, 2006. Location: AR RAMADI, 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.
