 This was before my time there, but a lot of overlap exists.
Bob Theis died of a brain tumor that he had had for a year or so; this was in 1997. I spoke to his wife shortly thereafter, in NC. Craig Butz was a search posit op, I have been in touch with Ed Cronk, who lives in Washington State, John Bauer lives in Puerto Rico, I am in touch with Sheldon, you all know that Dwyer lost his life in Vietnam, I located and spoke with Max Kerr, Mark Marion, Tony Stracke, as well as Rick Spaur, Camarillo, California, and G. Brian Baker. Colombaro is out of touch with us for right now, but I have located him, Bobby Evans attended the 1998 Colo Spgs reunion, Frisco has been contacted by phone; Hession, Hundley, Salinas are members of MCCA. I have located Mike Peters via phone in Wisconsin. I called a Freemon Johnson in Wash DC area but it was not the same person whose name is on this list. Major Mitchell passed away some time ago.
