I want to let you and the VP-4 Community know that CDR Earl C. Carpenter passed away on May 19 in Norman, Oklahoma, of natural causes. He was comfortable and surrounded by family.Even I remember the early 60’s in Naha when Dad was in VP-4. It was an important time for him and he treasured it for his entire life. Dad was on Crew 4 and Crew 7 and served as the Maintenance Officer. Your recent communications to him provided a reminder of the important work he had done and of the enduring friendships he made.
As a VP-4 Alumni myself thanks for your work keeping the squadron informed. Please pass this information to those members you feel will be interested.
Thanks. Carp
John Carpenter, CDR USN (Ret)
