Their Story
Serving as 1STLT Krissoff, Nathan Michael, from RENO, NV, at age 25, with H & S BN, (3D RECON BN, RCT-5, I MEF FWD), 3D MAR DIV, OKINAWA, JA, he went to Iraq with the MARINE CORPS. He did not come home.
The date recorded for his death: December 9, 2006. Location: TAQADDUM, 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 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.
