Ground Casualty

PFC Samuel E. Dick was a flight-qualified aircraft mechanic serving with the 162nd Assault Helicopter Company at Can Tho Army Airfield in Vinh Long Province, RVN. On Christmas Eve 1970, Dick died at Can Tho after he reportedly shot himself with an M16 rifle while in his unit’s company area. A fellow soldier attempted to stop Dick by talking him out of it but was unsuccessful. He was taken to the airfield dispensary where he expired after about ten minutes. A suicide note was later found. An Army volunteer, Dick was 20 years old. [Sourced at coffeltdatabase.org]
