| Function and Use: | In the early 1980s, in response to a demand from veterans, Richard D. Coffelt began a project to create data files to identify units down to the company / battery / troop level for U.S. Army deaths in the Vietnam War. During the 1990s, Richard J. Arnold and David L. Argabright joined Mr. Coffelt in the research effort. In 2001, the data files project expanded to include unit information for those members of the Marine Corps, Air Force, and Navy who died in the Vietnam War. In 2002, the Vietnam Helicopter Pilots Association and The Virtual Wall contributed significant additional amounts of information to the data files for members of all the Armed Forces. These data files contain the records for this series. |
