Their Story
Serving as CPL Snyder, Joshua David, from HAMPSTEAD, MD, at age 20, with E CO, 2D BN, 6TH MAR, (RCT-8), 2D MAR DIV, CAMP LEJEUNE, NC, he went to Iraq with the MARINE CORPS. He did not come home.
On November 30, 2005, he died in FALLUJAH, IRAQ ? HOSTILE ?. His name entered the Defense Casualty Analysis System that day.
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.
