Details of Disappearance

Allen was last seen in Adelanto, California on August 15, 1986. He was in the Navy, assigned to the U.S.S. William Bates, a nuclear submarine which was at the naval base in San Diego, California at the time.

Allen disappeared after leaving to go to the naval base. He never arrived and has never been heard from again. After his disappearance, his 1985 Ford Mustang was found in the 2200 block of north Harbor Boulevard Drive in San Diego, with the keys still inside it.

Few details are available in Allen's case. He was listed as Absent Without Leave (AWOL) from the Navy and when his family tried to file a missing persons report, the police refused to take it because of his AWOL status. Allen's family was finally able to report him missing in 2014. His case remains unsolved.
