Bennie Washington, of the 44th Engineers, who died on on 1.4.2005 from injuries sustained on 10.14.2005 in Ramadi. Sgt. Washington "was a driver of one of the M1114 gun-trucks that compromised the battalion’s quick reaction force." Known by the nickname "The Champ", he was a fan of professional wrestling. Sgt. Washington is the father of two children.
