Their Story
Wood, William Wesley of PANAMA CITY, FL, 44 years old, served in the ARMY with HHC, 1ST BATTALION, 184TH INFANTRY (TF BAGHDAD) MODESTO, CALIFORNIA at the rank of COL ? one of the Americans deployed to Iraq.
The date recorded for his death: October 27, 2005. Location: BAGHDAD, IRAQ. Cause: HOSTILE.
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 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.
