Their Story
From IRVINE, CA, LCPL Probst, Michael Stuart, serving with 1ST TANK BN, (2D AA BN, RCT-8, 2D MAR DIV), 1ST MAR DIV, CAMP PENDELTON, CA, was 26 years old when he deployed with the MARINE CORPS to Iraq.
The date recorded for his death: February 14, 2006. Location: ABU GHURAYB, 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 MARINE CORPS 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.
