Maj. John Christopher Archbold was killed on June
7, 1969. It is not clear that he was permanently assigned to
the squadron. He was not listed on the June Command Chronology of
the squadron as being killed. Possibly he was flying this mission
as a copilot to gain flight hours for flight pay purposes. Other
information suggests he was a member of MABS-16.
