~SALUTE~

Sorry to see his passing.

The article is a bit confusing, though. Who is 'Ryan'?

[Jimbuna]

Can't honestly say but the error was confirmed and corrected.


FOR THE RECORD:
Urban Drew: A news obituary of World War II ace Urban Drew in the May 6 LATExtra section incorrectly identified him twice in the story as Ryan.

Sad news, losing a lot of men who served during the war. But time shows no mercy to anyone, sadly.
