John was career military and spent his childhood at New Mexico Military Academy in Roswell. He loved the Army and was dedicated to serving in whatever capacity needed. John had a young wife and three very small children when he was killed on 3-26-67. The family ultimately flourished, the two youngest sons now coaching high school football in Oklahoma and the oldest daughter a 20+ year veteran police officer in Washington State. John's wife returned to live in Roswell and misses him every day. John died with honor and respect. We loved his humor and dedication to his men. We will never forget...Capt John K Adams "Dad"
