Their Story
A Active Duty member of the ARMY ? COMPANY B 1ST BATTALION 8TH INFANTRY REGIMENT, FORT CARSON, CO 80913 ? serving as SSG, Panchot, Dale Aldon was 26 and came from NORTHOME, MN.
Killed on November 17, 2003 in BALAD, IRAQ ? HOSTILE ?, Panchot, Dale Aldon was one of the 4418 Americans the country lost in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
In the first year of occupation, military victory gave way to an insurgency the US hadn't planned for. Disbanding the Iraqi army created a vacuum. Armed groups filled it immediately.
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.
