Chet Nycum recalls that White was a training jump fatality whilst in Australia, electrocuted when he drifted into a live electrical line. The troopers had been aware of the line's existence as a potential landing field hazard, and had been told that it would be disconnected. 

The submission of a photograph of this Trooper's Grave is invited.
