THE WALL OF FACES

Today, as I have for the pass 57 years, pause to reflect on the night of July 15, 1967. As a medic, assigned to the medical group on the base I witness the carnage on the base and to the personnel of DaNanag Air Base. A2C James Price along with his firefighting team lost their lives fighting a fire on a plane when a bomb on the plane exploded. Their courage will never be forgotten.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrances from your cousin Judith Ariola are touching and reflect her enduring love for you. As long as you are remembered you will remain in our hearts forever….

Ted Humphries passed on 12/20/20. Ted was Jims' cubicle mate. Ted fought a good fight but lost it to agent orange. We reconnected 8 years ago and I would visit him every year except for the past year with covid. We all would be by Jim and Teds cubicle and listen to music on Jims boom box. Take care brothers and I'll see you when I see you

Ted Humpries passed away on 12/20/2020. Agent orange finally ended his life. He was closer to Jim than anyone in the unit. They were cubicle mates. They are probably laughing it up and talking about old times up in heaven. I connected with Ted 8 years ago and visited him in Florida every year until covid hit. We would call the roll. I am the last one left. I miss my buddies.

Dear A2C James Price, Thank you for your service with the 366th Combat Engineer Support Group. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Summer begins today. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.
