Subject's service was honorable and his death is tragic, but this seems to be WP:BIO1E and WP:NOTMEMORIAL. His information should be merged into 2004 Iraq KBR convoy ambush the event that lead to his capture. EricSerge (talk) 15:37, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Redirect to 2004 Iraq KBR convoy ambush per WP:BIO1E. Soldier is not notable per WP:SOLDIER; however subject has received significant coverage from non-primary reliable sources as it relates to one event. Therefore, a redirect to the event should be left in the article space.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 07:43, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Redirect to 2004 Iraq KBR convoy ambush as suggested. Seems like a sensible solution for a soldier that doesn't meet WP:SOLDIER where a relevant associated article exists. Stalwart 111  05:15, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to 2004 Iraq KBR convoy ambush, only notable due to/as part of the incident, therefore should be redirected to it. - The Bushranger One ping only 02:21, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
