Dear Squadronmates -- In 2006, when I volunteered to head up the squadron, ANA headquarters sent me a list of nearly 500 folks. I attempted to contact each of you, and was successful with perhaps three-fourths of the list. A lot of people on the list had moved or passed away. Some people I was unable to contact, but remain on the list. I took hasty notes in conversations with some of you and have included them here. I have also indicated which of you have supported my efforts by subscribing to the quarterly newsletter. Please contact me if you have additions or corrections or want to be removed from the list. Click HERE to email me -- John Fry.

Just prior to my graduation from Central Missouri State University in 1955 I happened to see an ad suggesting joining the navy. I applied and went to OCS, Newport RI and was commissioned in late ‘55. My first squadron was VW-12 flying the WV-2 Super Constellation between Midway Island and the Aleutians as part of the DEW line barrier. Subsequent to that I flew E-2 aircraft from Constellation and Midway on several Vietnam cruises. I spent two OpNav tours and commanded TacGru-1 prior to retiring in 86.
