★★★ Memorial Monday ★★★
LT Ned Metcalf, Jr., USN ‘87 was lost on March 21, 1991 when the P-3C Orion he was aboard collided with another about 60 miles southeast of San Diego. All twenty-seven men aboard both aircraft were killed.
His high school yearbook and the Lucky Bag both mention his desire to fly. After his loss: "He always wanted to fly," his aunt said. "That's all he ever wanted to do."
Ned was survived by his fiancé and mother.
To Honor! ⚓
