Pugliese, George Anthony of CARBONDALE, PA, 39 years old, served in the ARMY with COMPANY B, 1ST BATTALION, 109TH INFANTRY, (2 MEF), WILLIAMSPORT, PA at the rank of SFC ? one of the Americans deployed to Iraq.

September 28, 2005 ? Pugliese, George Anthony died in AR RAMADI, IRAQ, HOSTILE. The Department of Defense confirmed his death in 2005.

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.
