BlueGhosts and Blackhawks

While looking for the first name of C Model gunship door gunner Bass, who was shot in the foot in February 1968, I came across these excerpts from the 1/1 Armored Cavalry year book for 1967-68 containing names of some BlueGhosts who flew in support of that squadron. The names of those BlueGhosts are indicated in bold letters.

Norman Crago

Came to C trp 7/17 in Feb. 68 along with Crago and Louis Bradley, I was shot down Mar.16 68 while flying with Jack Shanahan and Bill Brady, lost all contact with Shanahan and Brady until I found them on the Blueghost site, have spoken to both. Heard that Bradley was KIA, was good friend, last contact with Crago was in Chu Lai in 70 at F troop area while serving my second tour, no contact since, does anyone know what became of him? Crago, Bradley and myself first met at Ft. Campbell in 67 with the 101st airborne and all came to Nam together, last known area Crago lived in was Akron Ohio, any info on this "turkey"?
