Their Story
Marchand, Jason Nicholas of GREENWOOD, WV, 26 years old, served in the ARMY with COMPANY I, 3D SQUADRON, 2D CAVALRY, VILSECK, GERMANY at the rank of CPL ? one of the Americans deployed to Iraq.
On October 5, 2007, he died in BAGHDAD, IRAQ ? HOSTILE ?. His name entered the Defense Casualty Analysis System that day.
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.
