Biography[]
Tyrone Miller was born in a dangerous area of South Bronx, New York City, New York in 1952, and he enlisted in the US Navy at a young age during the Vietnam War. Miller served on a Navy PBR in Vietnam, serving in the crew of CPO George Phillips, who treated him like a son. Miller was known to use drugs with the rest of the crew, and he was also known for his immaturity and his ridiculous behavior, which angered Benjamin L. Willard when the crew was sent to escort Willard to Cambodia in 1969. Miller was killed when the Viet Cong opened fire on the PBR with assault rifles, being shot in the head while firing a machine gun at them.
