The photograph is new but the patch and the jacket were worn by Cpl. John Sabol, Jr.  Note the patch has the dates of 67-68 on it.  Your webmaster had the distinct pleasure of recently meeting with John Sabol, Earnest "Earnie" Kun and Edward C. "Ed" Straka in Hazelton, Pa. for the purpose of gaining more information about our squadron.  The mission was a success.  Click here to see how they look like today.
