Their Story
Salazar, William Isac of PICO RIVERA, CA, 26 years old, served in the MARINE CORPS with H&S CO, HQ BN, 1ST MAR DIV, CAMP PENDLETON, CA at the rank of CPL ? one of the Americans deployed to Iraq.
On October 15, 2004, the MARINE CORPS lost CPL Salazar, William Isac in KARABILAH, IRAQ. He was 26. The MARINE CORPS recorded the cause as HOSTILE.
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 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.
