Michael Shanley, age 24, from La Mesa, California, San Diego county.

Service era: Vietnam

Date of death: Tuesday, December 2, 1969
Death details: On February 22, 1990, the Central Identification Laboratory-Hawaii (CILHI, now DPAA) identified the remains of Sergeant First Class Michael Henry Shanley Jr., missing from the Vietnam War. Sergeant First Class Shanley joined the U.S. Army from California and was a member of the 129th Aviation Company. On December 2, 1969, he was a gunner aboard a UH-1B Iroquois on a fire support mission for a long-range reconnaissance patrol in Binh Dinh Province, Vietnam. The aircraft crashed during the mission, and SFC Shanley was killed in the incident. His remains could not be immediately recovered. In January 1989, the Vietnamese government returned a set of remains that forensic analysis identified as those of SFC Shanley. Sergeant First Class Shanley is memorialized on the Courts of the Missing at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific.
