Wikipedia is so reliable. What about John Getz? Martha was in our class.
john Baker, Congressional Medal of Honor recipient. I think graduated in 1965 or 67?
ReplyDeleteJohn Baker, Medal of Honor recipient (1966), passed away in January 2012 (born in October 1945-he was 66-years old) he did not graduate, but a failed effort to get him included in the MHS Class of 2012 was attempted. His profile is very interesting and details are available in this blog (left margin)
