Their Story
From LOUISVILLE, KY, SGT Potter, Darrin Keith, serving with 223RD MP CO (800 MP BDE) LOUISVILLE, KY 40218, was 24 years old when he deployed with the ARMY to Iraq.

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.
