First Lieutenant Allen R. Miller was born July 2, 1919 in Baltimore, Maryland. As a high school graduate, he volunteered for military service in the Army Air Corps in early 1942 and was accepted in the Cadet Pilot Training Program. Some of the Army Air Corps bases Lieutenant Miller was assigned to were: Luke Air Force Base, Arizona; Mather Air Force Base, California; Greenville Air Force Base, South Carolina.

Upon completion of his primary and advanced pilot training, Lieutenant Miller was assigned as a combat command pilot in a North American B-25 medium bomber and assigned to an Air Group based in Italy. Lieutenant Miller was awarded an Air Medal with an Oak Leaf Cluster.

In July 1945 Lieutenant Miller was flying his B-25 and flight crew on their return to the United States when his aircraft disappeared along the coast of Africa. The Army Air Corps declared Lieutenant Miller and his crew missing and presumed dead on July 8, 1945. Lieutenant Allen R. Miller is memorialized at Florence American Cemetery, Via Cassia, and Italy. This tribute and place on The National Aviation and Space Exploration Wall of Honor is to commemorate First Lieutenant Allen R. Miller's supreme sacrifice for our United States of America. May God bless him.
