I know the 1980 crash happened, even though I was about 9 at the time. My dad was on Duty that night in Turkey, and had a call to the states for his anniversary. Called my mom and gave list of names and numbers to call for a few folks who were NOT on the plane. He wound up basically locking down the entire communications for the base through him that night because there was a function that the higher ranking officers were at.
Interesting to find this in the depths of the internet.
