Context · from the records
What was happening
56 names on the Wall carry the date May 2, 1967; 13 of them were lost in Tây Ninh Province. In May 1967, 1,396 Americans whose names are on the Wall died in the war.
The 9th Infantry Division, his unit in the record, lost 64 of its members that month.
He died in Tây Ninh Province while Operation Junction City was under way. Operation Junction City (22 February–14 May 1967), in War Zone C along the Cambodian border, was the largest U.S. operation of the war to that time and included the only major American combat parachute assault of the war. The casualty record gives the province and date, not the exact place, so it does not say whether he fell in the battle itself.
