★★★ Memorial Monday ★★★
Lt. Michael Martin '71, USN was lost on October 13, 1979 when his RF-8G Crusader crashed near San Francisco. He was a member of Light Photographic Squadron (VFP) 63 and was performing maneuvers for relatives of USS Coral Sea (CV 43)'s crew for a "Dependent's Day" cruise.
John was from Nebraska, and was survived by his parents and a brother, all of whom have since passed away. (We and the Naval Academy Alumni Association have lost contact with the family. If you know how to find them please tell us!)
To Honor! ⚓
