Their Story
SGT Rowe, Roger Dale, 54 years old, grew up in BON AQUA, TN and served as National Guard in the ARMY with 1174TH TRANSPORTATION COMPANY, COLUMBIA TN 38402 during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
On July 9, 2003, he died in TAMPA, IRAQ ? HOSTILE ?. His name entered the Defense Casualty Analysis System that day.
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.
