A 24-year-old guardsman in Waukesha, Wis., allegedly shot dead “his best friend,” a 23-year-old Marine Corps veteran, after the two argued during a night of drinking, according to local police.

Steven P. Osburn Jr., a specialist with the Wisconsin National Guard, was charged with intentional homicide in the Aug. 6 death of Zachary S. Gallenberg, formerly a Hawaii-based Marine corporal.

Police said Osburn shot Gallenberg in the chest outside Osburn’s home, where police discovered him bleeding and unresponsive. The first-degree intentional homicide charge can carry a life sentence. Osburn was being held in lieu of $500,000 bond at the Waukesha County Jail as of Aug. 18.

  1. And no one comments wether Osburn had actually ever seen combat...

    The story is he never saw combat at all. He was a mechanic.
