Correction
A feature, “South Dakota Crash — a Year Later” in
last week’s Herald incorrectly identified MSGT Robert
Cannon as Joseph Cannon. “Robbie” Cannon is the son- |
in-law of James and Sandy Russ of Kings Mountain and
was among four crew members killed in the crash of a
C130 fighting wildfire in South Dakota. Four National
Guardsmen were killed including Major Joseph Mc-
Cormick of Belmont. Sgt. Josh Marlowe of Boiling
Springs was injured in the crash.
