    I've tried looking at a few sources, but not finding many details. Does anyone know if the death was due to the concussive force of the mortar shell going off and an instant barotrauma resulting? I'm assuming it's better than a melted head, but I guess the means to the end don't matter much if it the end was indeed "instant."

      One of the links above has his brother saying that there was no helping him, so I would assume it was not just the concussive force.

      There was no Devon left when I got there

        Yikes. I missed that critical sentence.
