via mal contends - The death of Airman Gary Holland on February 5, 1969 continues today to cause hardship and despair.

Holland was crushed to death by a C-54 aircraft at a Naval base in Naples, Italy.

Holland's death causes despair today because former VA General Counsel attorney and VA national Director of Compensation and Pension Services, Renee L. Szybala, helped engineer the prosecution of Gary Holland's fellow airman, Keith Roberts, by US Atty Stephen Biskupic.
