    Notes 
    • In the STRIFFLER-BENKELMAN BROADCAST, Volume 9, September 2, 1946, in a column titled "Still in the Service of the U.S.A.", it was noted that Junior Zinnecker of Moore, Montana was stationed in Guam.

      The Striffler-Benkelman Broadcast, Volume 10, dated September 1, 1947, reported that he was employed in the Billings Hudson Motor plant as parts man.

      Art Peck wrote that Zip's ashes were scattered over Dead Man's Basin, a favorite spot. Art showed that he died in Salt Lake City, but as he is listed on the Montana State Death Index, it is being assumed he actually died somewhere in Montana.
