Goodbye!
Crawford bid world good-bye in March, 15 2000. The great and brave warrior was no more. He passed away at age of 81, where his wife followed him 9 years later. The cemetery box of US academy was glorified as Crawford was the first man to be buried at the US Air Force Academy Cemetery in Colorado Springs, even though he wasn’t part of air force but was In non-air force list.
like to know more i like to read these kind of stories
I am pleased our nation’s military has finally and properly honored these brave men…and mildly proud as a retired Air Force man that our Academy family had a part to play in some of it. I will be looking to visit LT Baker’s gravesite at Arlington to honor him again and again on behalf of a grateful nation and fellow service member.
I think God every day for these brave men. Their skin color doesn’t matter to me man amen thank God for them. God bless these brave men and God bless the United States of America🙏🏻
