March 30th Zazz was trying to find out
some names in this 1969 shorttimer's picture, and Rhett Fry has offered some
help. Can you help out and name the guys in the picture? Email me if you can,
thanks Rick.
From Zazz: #2 looks like Odell
Cromer, #6 is Rich Wilke, #10 is Roger "Rosie" Thompson, #12 is Al Marzian, and
#13 is Ernie Warren.
From Rhett: Number 4 is Dean Greenfelder. "Greenie"
(he was from Ohio and a big Buckeye fan) and I took coupla weeks' leave
together and flew to Nairobi in June of '69. He went to Vint Hill (in October
'69) after Asmara. (Dean passed away in 1994 after a courageous battle with
lung cancer--Becky (Greenfelder) Toomey) Number 8 is Gerald Young. He
brought his wife to Asmara and in the spring or summer of 69-about the same
time Dwight Eisenhower died- she had a boy. Young and family also went to VHS
in late 69. I think # 9 is Thomas Gumpp-MOS 98B. |
