One of four men the small town of Tonkawa, Oklahoma, lost during the Vietnam War, John was an honor student as well as everyone's friend. He was killed about the same time I got my discharge orders to leave the Philippines. John was my friend and next door neighbor when we grew up as kids. If anyone remembers John or has any information about what happened on 25 Aug 68, please get in touch with me. His parents have both passed on and he was an only child.
