Lt Col John E “Jack” Marder

Sun Aug 16, 2020 1:12 pm

My sister’s father in law passed this week at age 100.

Jack flew as a B-25 aircraft commander with the 42nd Crusaders in the Pacific and went on to fly the C-119, C-124, and C-130A retiring from the ANG as an airlift squadron commander in Delaware.

I have fond memories of him allowing me to flip through his photo albums and Crusaders yearbook, and he gave me my first introduction to the E-6B when I was 8 or so. I already liked the B-25 when we met, so he immediately seemed larger than life. RIP & blue skies Mr Marder.
