So sad. A accident that most would never think could happen.
Condolences to the families.
We drove over to Cental Point, OR and I talked with Ron Fitzpatrick today (owner operator of G503.com and Ron Fitzpatrick Jeep Parts) and it was made official by the Military Vehicle Preservation Association (MVPA) in a news letter. Steve Preston and Austin Lee both killed in tragic WWII M18 Hellcat accident.
Thanks for the update even though I reside in a different country it still does not diminish the fact that people have lost their lives, now as a stone is dropped into a pond the ripple affect goes through the families and the people they knew and were friends with.
There's a follow up news story here: :(
Ore. pair who restored vintage tanks killed by explosion
Regards,
Doug
This photo of Steve says it all.
