Thanks, Allan! The book was apparently written about 1996. Army Major Bill Thompson was stationed at Bad Kreuznach at what was then about 1976 and apparently was moved to Hawaii. An undated newspaper account of his research came from Newport News, Virginia. Since he was still stationed there the article was probably mid-1970s. His wife was Marion and they had two sons Steve and Sam then age 10. --Tim ============================= ONE80K@aol.com wrote: > Tim, I have nephew , a retired Sr. Warrant Officer from the Airforce, who > will try to find our Dr. Bill Thompson, through the retiree news. > You shall be the first to know of any success!
