Interview, Louis M. Scarabin, Jr. – Tembagapura, 1976-1982, Pt.1 – Jason Scarabin
Louis M. “D.D.” Scarabin, Jr. takes us from the time he found out he’s taking the job in Tembagapura, Indonesia through stories of Ross McCrimmon, who lost his wife over there, and the pilots of the F-27 that took workers and their families from Cairns, Australia to Timika. Bobby Means greeted the family at the airport and had Louis drive the treacherous roads of Irian Jaya. Louis also discusses his involvement with the Lupa Lelah Club including the Mardi Gras parades that started circa 1981. This is the first in a long series on Tembagapura years.
