On March 23, 1976, the Central Identification Laboratory-Hawaii
(CILHI, now DPAA) identified the remains of Specialist 4
Valentine Bernard Vollmer, missing from the Vietnam War.
Specialist 4 Vollmer entered the U.S. Army from Wisconsin and
served with Company A, 1st Battalion, 502nd Infantry Regiment,
101st Airborne Division. On February 16, 1968, his unit
encountered enemy forces in Quang Tri Province, South Vietnam.
He was killed during the resulting engagement, and his remains
were not recovered at the time. In 1974, the North Vietnamese
government repatriated a set of remains that U.S. analysts
identified as those of SP4 Vollmer.
