Tom Jones (right) and the gunner named Sutherland (spelling?): they were the enlisted crew who was down on LZ Lolo in Smoky 89er, with Morris & O'Daniel on 3/3/71. Orderly room in background, I think I even see the mail slot in the wall. Bob Morris would like to know if anybody has been in contact with Sutherland, remembers his first name or anybody has his service # on their old orders or knows of his location, etc., please contact Bob Morris through this site.
