Capt. Glen Collins

 

Capt. Glen Collins was the radar observer in  the F-89 which crashed into a marsh at the edge of Lake Wingra, in Madison, Wisconsin, on the same day the F-89 disappeared over Lake Superior. From information I received from a member of the 433rd Fighter Interceptor Squadron, he "was just along for the ride" on the fatal flight.

He was a veteran of the World War II.

He was married with two daughters at the time of his death. He was from Indianapolis, Indiana.
