Lane Soldier Killed in War
    Cottage Grove A 20 year old Army private from this area has been killed in South Vietnam his family learned Thursday.
    Pfc. Levi Lester Armstrong, the son of Mr. and Mrs. George Armstrong, Lorane Rte Box 149-A, died in combat Sunday, according to a Defense Department statement received by the family.
    Born and reared in the Cottage Grove area, Armstrong attended public schools here through the 10th grad. He enlisted in the Army last January, a few days after his 19th birthday, and was a machine-gunner.
    A military spokesman told the parents their son died from wounds inflicted by an enemy boobytrap. The location of the action was not disclosed.
    Besides his parents, he is survived by two sisters, Levina, 19, and Leila, 17, both at home. (Eugene Register-Guard, Eugene OR, 15 Aug 1969)
