On these Pages we hope to honor many of those 700 plus from Allen County, Ohio who gave their lives for our country. We begin this project knowing it will never be completed. We will strive to do these who gave their lives just due for their sacrifice. They are not gone until they are forgotten. |
Last Update - JANUARY 5, 2023: This list of Allen County Military casualties is a continuing work. Our research includes vetting the original list and removing any that did not die while in service unless they died of wounds after discharge. We would like volunteers to help us with this research so we can include as much information as we can about every veteran we have on our list of Allen County, Ohio military casualties. Call us or contact us at contact@allencountyveterans.org or use the contact form on this site if you would like to help.

This is, our latest list of War Casualties from Allen County Ohio from all wars. Names we included in the list are those who had either enlisted or resided in Allen County at anytime prior to their death. We are sure the list is missing some names based upon that criteria. We are continually searching records and contacting families. |

The HMM-363 Command Chronology for 12 May 1967 contains the following incident report:
"At approximately 1700H, YZ-78 suffered a direct hit by enemy mortar fire shortly after lifting from a landing zone at YD 117692. The aircraft crashed and burned killing the pilot and crew chief and injuring the co-pilot and aerial gunner."
The report refers to UH-34D BuNo 147190 which was conducting a fuel resupply mission to a landing zone at Con Thien. The LZ came under attack by rocket fire as the aircraft finished off-loading 55 gallon fuel drums. The UH-34 lifted off in a southeasterly direction, but had attained only about 100 feet in aitude before it was hit in the port fuselage by a rocket. The aircraft crashed and burned about 80 meters distant from the LZ. The enemy gunners shifted their aim to the crash site, firing approximately 30 more rockets. As noted by LZ personnel, casuaies would have been much higher had those rockets impacted within the LZ rather than 80 meters distant.
Two men died in the crash, ain Richard L. Basinger (pilot) and Corporal John W. Jackson (crew chief); the copilot, George Hadzewycz, and the door gunner, Ronald Hartline, survived with injuries. 41 Baxter Hiram Civil No Date Sep 19, 1864 KIA Opequan, VA Winchester National Cemetery, Winchester, VA 42 Baxter Samuel Civil No Date Sep 19, 1864 KIA Opequan, VA Winchester National Cemetery, Winchester, VA 43 Beam Paul W.

Poland, Knoxville, TN (See Camp Bob Taylor at Knoxville and Camp Wilder)
• Named after the Brig. General who was the first commanding officer of the second division of the First Corps. The August 13, 1898 Army and Navy Journal reported that Poland died August 8 at Asheville, North Carolina of fever contracted at Chickamauga. He is buried at Westerly, R.I.
• This camp was established because of the overcrowding at Camp Thomas. General McKee and the second division of the First Corps moved from Camp Thomas to Camp Poland beginning about August 22, 1898. The new camp was named Camp Poland about August 21, 1898. The camp was abandoned in early January, 1899 except for the hospital at Turner Park, which stayed open until mid-February, 1899.
• The regiments at Camp Poland began leaving as early as mid-September, 1898. By December, only two regiments were left in camp. The 6th Ohio left in late December on its way to Cuba. The 31st Mich. left January 9, 1899 for Savannah and uimately on to Cuba.
• Part of the camp was located near the site of Camp Wilder. The front page of the August 30, 1898 Knoxville Sentinel has a map of the initial configuration of troops at Camp Poland. The division headquarters and first brigade were camped near the site of Camp Wilder. The third brigade was camped to the north at Lonsdale, northwest of the railroad shops, and the second brigade was camped just south of Lincoln Park, northwest of Broadway Street. The division hospital was at Turner Park, east of the second brigade’s camp. Turner Park was east of Broadway at about Cecil Avenue. The grandstand was used as a hospital building. The 4th Tenn. camp became a part of Camp Poland. The brigade camps were all within one to one and one-half miles of each other. Regiments moved to some other locations including Glenwood after the initial camps were established.
• According to the August 20, 1898 Knoxville Sentinel, the first brigade camp was at the rear of the Brookside cotton mill and east of the site of Camp Wilder.
• Ahough Knoxville city officials tried to have the division remain there, the army was reorganized in early October273 Gracely Larry Allan Vietnam Apr 26, 1947 LIMA Shawnee Navy Jun 03, 1969 Collision At Sea – MIA South China Sea Lost at sea Class of 1965 274 Graessle Carl Benjamin SGT WWI Feb 2, 2019 Nov 30, 1918 DOW Spencerville 275 Graham James L.
