Ground Casualty
SGT Larrie C. Allen was a Tactical Communications Chief serving with Headquarters & Headquarters Battery (HHB), 8th Battalion, 4th Artillery, 108th Artillery Group, XXIV Corps. On the evening of August 22, 1970, Allen was in his barracks at a battery position one mile west of Dong Ha Airfield in Quang Tri Province, RVN, when he was shot by another GI. He sustained multiple penetrating gunshot injuries to the right chest and neck; he died minutes later. His body was transported to the 18th Surgical Hospital at Quang Tri where medical staff pronounced him dead on arrival. An investigation was opened to gather facts about his death; however, it is unclear what outcome it produced as the Army generally provided very little details regarding such incidents. Allen was 22 years old. [Taken from coffeltdatabase.org]
