As a member of the Army's 724th Transportation Company, he was part of the escort to protect civilian contractors as they provided logistical support from Balad to Baghdad International airport. The ambush was well executed as at least eight men were killed and two are still missing.Ê Shortly afterward, then Pfc. Maupin was seen on a video, captured and alive. A later video, purporting the execution of an unidentified person was shown. The fact remains that Spc. Maupin was last seen alive.
