Their Story
From VISTA, CA, SPC Twyman, Wade Michael, serving with HHC, 1ST BATTALION, 9TH INFANTRY, 2D INFANTRY DIVISION, (1 MEF), FORT CARSON, CO, was 27 years old when he deployed with the ARMY to Iraq.

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.
