Honoring Sergeant John Karibo

5 Aug 2020 12:18 PM | GSW National Office (Administrator)

The fate of Flying Tiger Line Flight 739 has been shrouded in mystery for almost sixty years. In the late winter of 1962, the U.S. Military airliner exploded over and disappeared in the Pacific Ocean. There were no survivors, and the servicemen’s families were not given the option of having their loved one’s names included on the Vietnam Memorial Wall. On board was Army Sergeant Ranger John Karibo of Ohio. His widow, Gold Star Wife Tonya Wagner, and daughter, Kimberly Steinman-Elmquist, continue to honor his memory and fight for the recognition of those on board. To read more about their efforts and a memorial planned for later this year, please click here: http://carmichaeltimes.com/articles/2020/0730-Disappearance-Still-A-Mystery/index.php?ID=8591 .
