Anthony J. Synodinos.<BR/><BR/>It was held April 3, 2004 in Havre de Grace, Md. and Brig. Gen. Charles A. Morgan III, assistant adjutant general for air of the Maryland Air National Guard, presented a proclamation from Gov. Ehrlich. <BR/><BR/>Capt. Synodinos was the pilot on a search and rescue mission on April 6, 1954 that stretched from Long Island, N.Y. to Langley Field, Va. for a missing T-33 military jet that was never found. <BR/><BR/>Their open-cockpit Ryan PT-22 airplane crashed into the water at 1:05 p.m. <BR/><BR/>To see the story I wrote, you can go to this link on the Maryland Wing web site: http://mdcap.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=article.display&articleid=76<BR/><BR/>Best wishes to you all.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Capt Steven Solomon<BR/>Director of Public Affairs<BR/>Southeast Region Headquarters<BR/>Civil Air Patrol<BR/>Tampa, FloridaPAOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10191427571089631043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5056845113261377115.post-34643732255144405702008-09-07T05:52:00.000-04:002008-09-07T05:52:00.000-04:00thank you for sharing such a personal and lovely s...thank you for sharing such a personal and lovely story about your dad.
