Eagle Scout candidate Brandon Shippy completed this on 12/13/14 in Robinson Ranch, an area within the City of Rancho Santa Margarita in Orange County, CA.
"Brandon’s memorial project honors the memory of four marine airmen lost in two accidents. The first loss occurred on May 5, 1944 killing Captain Calvin K. Vermillion, USMCR. The second loss occurred on February 12, 1987 killing Major William J. Anderson, USMCR, Major Dudley W. Urban, USMCR, and Sergeant Bradley A. Baird, USMCR. Both crash sites are near the memorial marker."
