Joseph C. LandakerJuly 13, 2007Thank you L/Cpl Rodgers for your words. Especially, in light of the fact that you too are a pilot.My son was a very good Marine Corps aviator. He flew CH-46 s out of Al Taqatom (sp), Iraq. On his last sehedulcd flight, while flying casualty evacuations to Balad Airbase Hospital his helicopter was shot down by a surface to air missle. He, along with six others, parrished in the crash. He was to be home the following week. He died on Feb. 7, 2007 while doing what he liked and what he was good at doing. He will never be forgotten.Joseph C. Landaker, former Marine Corps Sergeant, and father of 1st Lt. Jared Micheal-Vincent Landaker, USMC (Deceased)
