Paul was my hootch mate at NKP. Came back from a TDY to Udorn and noticed his bunk was neatly made and had not been slept in. Bob Bartlett came in and informed me that Paul's plane had been shot down over Mu Gia pass the night before. Have always remembered Paul - - a good guy.

I was the chief photographer at McChord Air Force Base in the 70's. I took the two photos above. It was my honor to work with these folks.

I served with Gus at Kirtland AFB in the early 90's. His personality was infectious, I always looked forward to seeing him and on downtime listening to his stories. He and Claudia were wonderful (her and my wife were pregnant at the same time). He will be missed.

The 62nd Wing Commander, Colonel Brown assigned me to the McChord combatcontrol team as a civilian photographer in 1975. I met the then major Gordy at that time. He welcomed me to the team. He was an outstanding officer. I respected him very much. Rest in peace sir.

I took the PAST with him. Till this day I have never seen someone display the no quit attitude that he displayed. We all showed up for the swim and Tracy didn’t tell anyone that he could barely swim. He got in the pool and tried but just kept getting on the wall until the cadre would yell at him at which time he would let go and sink. After a few times the cadre td him to get out. He just kept refusing. He must have drank 5 gallons of pool water that day. He eventually had to listen... Read more

We all showed up for the swim and Tracy didn’t tell anyone that he could barely swim. He got in the pool and tried but just kept getting on the wall until the cadre would yell at him at which time he would let go and sink. After a few times the cadre td him to get out. He just kept refusing. He must have drank 5 gallons of pool water that day. He eventually had to listen and got out. Because of his heart and his no quit attitude he was allowed to come in the program as a casual and train until the class started. We all worked with him but is was not to be. He was offered another recycle and stayed around 4 more months. He did learn to swim enough to make it to week 4. However, as many remember, week 4 is when underwater confidence starts and the sharks (cadre) came out to play. He was quickly removed from the course. I lost track of Tracy after the OL-H but i was, and still am, reminded of his never quit spirit. Obviously, he continued to train went back to the INDOC course and graduated a few years later. He never quit on himself. He never said the words.

John was my father and one heck of a human being! So many memories that make my heart ache and my pride swell. Thank you dad for giving me a compass and an ethic to live a meaningful life :)

Kathy Jones posted a picture of you and Mikey yesterday. You are both missed, but I'm sure you're both having a great time in Valhalla.

Major Johnson was my OIC and the detachment CO @ Mactan AB, PI 1967/68. A caring professional man who was an inspiration for our 12 man team. I am surprised that he passed so long ago. Wishing his family and friends the same memories that I have of him.

When I think of CCT SSgt Naz comes to mind. My introduction to CCT at Keesler AFB 1982. He taught me the "T" in CCT. Hy

I'm met Rex when he was on the McCord team. About 1975. I thought he was an outstanding staff sergeant. He taught me several things that combat controllers did. Cross trained with the rangers at fort Lewis. He was made Romad of the year. God bless you Rex
