you have him as both killed in action and died in military service. killed in action it death from enemy action, died in military service is non combat related deaths.
with all the changes for templates.... We are going to delete the template { {Died in Military Service} } which is now { {Roll of Honor} }. if he was combat death, just removed the Died in Military Service, otherwise, remove the KIA and please change the entry to { {Roll of Honor |category=Died in Military Service |image=Roll of Honor Template-15.jpg |description=Died in Military Service |country= |war= } }
without the spaces between the { { and } }
