HISTORIES & MISC. INFORMATION
 
(Source: STARS & STRIPES, Feb 15, 1954)
The military airstrip at Saalfelden has been renamed Nagy Airstrip in honor of SFC Joseph L. Nagy, of C Company, 70th Engr (C) Bn who died in a vehicle accident during a field exercise in Feb 1953.

A monument honoring SFC Nagy and three others of his company (PFC Roy Waldon, Jr.; PFC Salvador Tirabassi; and PVT Sizeno J. Martinez) who died in the same accident was unveiled by Brig Gen Charles E. Hoy, CG Tactical Command, during a ceremony held at the airstrip recently.
