    Is there recorded information of the causes of death of the following?; Frank Tenta,Brian Fulton, Nuef O’Neil, John McQueen, Keith Wyonch and Don Bungay. I served in 2 CDO with them and am shocked at their demise.

    Donovan passed away 24 April 2003 after a three-year battle with colon cancer. He was an amazing man, and our two sons and I still miss him.

    Hello, Im submitting a request to VAC for an injury I sustained on DZ Anzio, it was the jump where the green light was given prematurely and only the jumpers from first plane landed on the DZ, most landed on the highway, the jump is lovingly reffered to as DZ Chalk River, if I remember correctly, the navigator was a rookie female Lt, now was that a rumor, dont know, but then again I cant remember when this happened, can anyone help me out?

    I would of been sometime in 1984, it was a wonderful couple of years, Round lake massacre, DZ Chalk River, and in 85 Border Star Texas, it seemed like wind speeds didnt matter too much back then.
