An explosion in the C Company, 1/52nd Infantry Command Post on 12 July 1969 caused the deaths of five men:
  • C Co, 1st Bn, 52nd Infantry
    • CPT Ralph O. Bray, Olathe, KS
    • PFC Cody R. Calkins, Oglesby, IL
    • PFC Ronald M. Cremer, Miami, FL, medic HHC w/ C/1/52nd Infantry

  • B Btry, 1st Bn, 14th Artillery
    • PFC Barry W. Bickel, Logansport, IN

PFC Calkins actually assisted with the wounded before being taken out on the last medevac. He had been hit in the base of the skull by a fragment and died later in the day as a result of hemorrhage.
