Their Story
Suliveras, Wilberto was 38 and from BO PUNTA SANTIAGO, PR when he joined the Active Duty, ARMY, C CO 2-8 CAV 1 BCT [1 CD] as SSG. Operation Iraqi Freedom would take his life.
On July 29, 2007, he died in TAJI, IRAQ ? HOSTILE ?. His name entered the Defense Casualty Analysis System that day.
Operation Iraqi Freedom began March 19, 2003 with the US-led invasion. The stated justification ? weapons of mass destruction ? was never found. Seven years of occupation, insurgency, and sectarian war followed, killing 4,418 Americans and an estimated 200,000 Iraqi civilians.
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.
