Robert Eugene Holdeman from Winchester, Indiana.
Service era: Vietnam
Date of death: November 25, 1967
Death details: On June 16, 1997, Joint Task Force–Full Accounting (JTF-FA, now DPAA) identified the remains of Major Robert Eugene Holdeman, missing from the Vietnam War.
Major Holdeman entered the U.S. Marine Corps from Indiana and served with Marine All Weather Attack Squadron 242, Marine Air Group 11, 1st Marine Air Wing. On November 25, 1967, he was the bombardier/navigator aboard an A-6A Intruder (bureau number 15-2612, call sign “Packard”) on a night bombing mission against the Kien An Airfield, Haiphong, North Vietnam. During the mission, the aircraft was shot down near Haiphong, killing Maj Holdeman, and his remains were not recovered at the time. Between 1990 and 1995, joint U.S/Vietnamese investigative teams traveled to Hai Phong Province and recovered human remains from a site associated with this loss; in 1997, U.S. analysts identified Maj Holdeman from these remains.
