Sgt. Justin Bradley Allen
Sgt. Justin Bradley Allen, was a team leader assigned to Company D, 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment at Hunter Army Airfield, Ga. He was killed in a fire fight with enemy forces on July 18, 2010, while conducting a combat operation in Kandahar Province, Afghanistan. Allen was leading an assault on an enemy position when he was mortally wounded by enemy small arms fire. He was on his fourth deployment. He had previously deployed twice to Iraq and once to Afghanistan.
He was born on Aug. 7, 1986 in Ashland, Ky. After graduating from Dawson-Bryant High School, Allen enlisted in the U.S. Army in May 2006. He completed One Station Unit Training at Fort Benning, Ga. as an Infantryman. Then after graduating from the Basic Airborne Course, he was assigned to the Ranger Assessment and Selection Program at Fort Benning. As a Ranger, Allen selflessly lived his life for others while he distinguished himself as a member of the Army’s premier light-infantry unit. In every instance he fought valiantly as he served his fellow Rangers and our great Nation.
