Their Story
Osmolski, John Carl was 23 and from EUSTIS, FL when he joined the Active Duty, ARMY, COMPANY A, 2D BRIGADE SPECIAL TROOPS BATTALION, 2 BCT, FORT BRAGG, NC as SGT. Operation Iraqi Freedom would take his life.
He did not survive OIF. The ARMY recorded his death on February 5, 2008 in AL MUQDADIYAH, IRAQ, from HOSTILE.
In the later years of OIF, the surge had reduced violence significantly. But Americans continued to die ? IEDs, snipers, crashes ? as the mission shifted toward transition and withdrawal.
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.
