Sunday, March 9, 1958, Denver 1, Colorado - Rocky Mountain News - 28: "2 Denver Area Marines Die in Plane Crash Off Okinawa -- Two Denver area Marines were among 26 killed Friday night in the collision of a jet fighter-bomber, and a transport plane off Okinawa.
The next of kin of Corp. Eugene W. Christy, 2584 S. Logan st. (sic), and Corp. Vincent L. Moser of 600 Crescent, ct (sic). Littleton, were notified of their deaths Saturday by the Marine Corps.
Both were stationed in Japan, had been to the Philippines on maneuvers and were enroute to their Japanese base when the collision occurred.
DENVER NATIVE
Corp. Christy was 21 last August. He had just completed three years in the service and was overseas for a 14-month tour of duty about Oct. 1.
Born in Denver, he was reared here and graduated from St. Francie de Salea High School in 1954. He was the son of Emerson O. Christy of 2584 S. Logan st. and Mrs. Andy Anderson of Los Angeles. He was not married.
Corp. Moser, 20, was survived by his wife, Mrs. Betty J. Moser of Cookston, N.J., and a 5-month old son, Jeff, whom he had never seen.
Mrs. Moser was visiting her mother, Mrs. Dorothy Perry of 4005 st, and her mother-in-law, Mrs. Susie L. Holstein of the Littleton address when the word of her husband's death came.
ONE ANNIVERSARY
They had been married a year at Christmas. Corp. Moser left for his overseas assignment on Oct. 1, 10 days before his son was born, and was to have returned next Christmas for an anniversary celebration. His father is Vincent C. Moser of North Bend, Nebr.
The Navy said Saturday the cause of the collision was not known. The planes struck each other and turned into a "huge ball of fire" minutes before they were to land at the Navy base at Naha."
