Episode #550 of Hometown Heroes, airing November 15-18, 2018 focuses on two recently identified World War II Marines who were killed in action.
On December 7, 2018, exactly 77 years since he died aboard the USS Oklahoma at Pearl Harbor, Alva J. “Jack” Cremean, a native of Rocky Ford, CO, will be laid to rest in Madera, CA. On November 20, 2018, exactly 75 years after he was killed in the invasion of Tarawa, Dwight Randall will be laid to rest in his native Fresno, CA.

This episode features relatives of both men sharing what this long awaited news means to them, and we’ll also hear from Geoffrey Roecker of MissingMarines.com about how people in similar situations can pursue the answers to questions that have long lingered in their families.
