CPL Anthony Allen from Philadelphia The 20-year-old Marine corporal had volunteered to stay an extra week in Vietnam when he was killed in Da Nang, Quang Nam Province, on July 11, 1967, after a lightning bolt ignited grenades and anti-personnel mines stored in his bunker. The Murrell Dobbins Vocational High School graduate had been on more than 30 long-range patrols as a rifleman and reconnaissance scout with the 1st Forward Reconnaisance Company of the 1st Marine Division. He was survived by his mother, to whom he wrote: "The only person Marines look up to is God."
