I was a 21 year old college student at San Jose State University in my Senior year, and my Uncle Major William Burke was flying as an "Observation Person" on the KC-135 that crashed that day. Thanks to your commentary I now have more of the details of the horrible crash. I was scheduled to fly...
My uncle, Major William Burke was one of the eight people killed. He was riding as an "Observation Person" with the flight crew on the plane that crashed. Regards,
