US Air Force - Korean War
« on: Wednesday 30 September 20 17:39 BST (UK) »
I have just found this headstone for Robert George Lisk, buried in 1992 in Portland, Oregon.  I am assuming that it is a military-type headstone, as opposed to a civilian one.  I am wondering if anyone can possibly throw any more light on this gentleman.  I believe he married an English girl - Eileen Cooper - 8 February 1958 - again in Oregon.  Any help would be much appreciated.
