I am his niece and have inherited the letters he wrote home during WWII. Ward was killed in a B-17 crash on Oahu in April 1942. I am currently transcribing the letters and it would add so much if I could talk to someone who went to Polytech with him. Realize that many of his classmates are gone now but perhaps some remain. Can anybody help me out? I have the Polytech graduating list June 1936 and have called some on the list but to no avail. Just reached surviving family members. Hard to find anyone this way and it is hit or miss. Thanks, Patricia
