Seeking information on John Day, a Peace Crops Volunteer in Indonesia during the early 1960s. John was from Arizona and impressive in his ability to explain science and engineering principles. In the late 1960s John planned to return to Indonesia to teach electronics. Any
information about or suggestions for locating John would be greatly appreciated.
