Ground Casualty
SP4 Stephen E. Slocum was a clerk-typist serving with Headquarters & Headquarters Detachment (HHD), 68th Medical Group, U.S. Army Medical Command, at Long Binh Post, a sprawling logistics facility and the largest U.S. Army base in Vietnam, located in Long Binh ward between Bien Hoa and Saigon, RVN. SP4 Slocum arrived in Vietnam to begin his tour of duty on August 2, 1970. By mid-summer 1971, his DEROS (Date Estimated Return from Overseas) was approaching. A going home party was hosted for Slocum the night before he was to return to the United States. Because of this party, Slocum reportedly passed out, became sick and vomited while lying on his back and aspirated the vomit, causing him to suffocate. He was pronounced dead on July 24, 1971.
