Their Story
The ARMY, 367TH MAINTENANCE CO, 298TH CORPS SUPPORT BATTALION, PHILADELPHIA, MS 39350, sent Stovall, Matthew Ryan of HORN LAKE, MS, then 25, ? 1LT ? to Iraq.
The date recorded for his death: August 22, 2004. Location: MOSUL, IRAQ. Cause: 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 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.
