Their Story

Nunez, Jason of NARANJITO, PR, 22 years old, served in the ARMY with TROOP A, 5TH SQUADRON, 73D CAVALRY REGIMENT, 3D BCT, FORT BRAGG, NC at the rank of CPL ? one of the Americans deployed to Iraq.

The date recorded for his death: March 25, 2007. Location: NEAR FOB WARHORSE, 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.
