John was a good son.

Growing up in Porter Ranch, Northridge California I knew John's younger brother Ted and spent many a day at junior highschool with Ted. I remember John being pretty busy with school himself and I'm not certain when he enlisted. His father and mother were pretty conservative and I believe his father was a officer in World War II. I was a little wild in the seventies. I distinctly remember a time as we were getting a little older,being perhaps 14 years old, that Ted and I were comparing our biceps and John was out in front of the house. Ted and I showed our biceps to him and he kind of smiled. We asked him to show his muscle and he flexed his arm. I just remember the slight smile on John's face.John turned to the side and gave us a arm flex pose showing us his muscle . He was a little older than us but occasionally he would interact in a friendly way. I was real sorry to hear of his death when I was 16 years old. He was apparently in a maneuver with a helicopter during training and lost control. It was a sad time indeed.
