Their Story
Young, Christopher Dwayne of LOS ANGELES, CA, 20 years old, served in the ARMY with CO C, 3RD BN, 360TH INF, 33RD MP BN, 16TH MP BDE (ABN) SAN DIEGO, CA at the rank of SPC ? one of the Americans deployed to Iraq.
Killed on March 2, 2007 in CAMP ARIFJAN, IRAQ ? HOSTILE ?, Young, Christopher Dwayne was one of the 4418 Americans the country lost in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
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.
