Report of Casualty

My uncle was killed in battle during the Vietnam War on 10 December 1967.  This form is the Report of Casualty which states that he died from a gunshot wound received in hostile ground action.  It also documents that he was posthumously promoted to corporal as of 4 December 1967.
