Randy Stewart Doran, a 22-year-old Marine veteran, was last heard from on April 18, 1978, in New Orleans, Louisiana. Originally from Sacramento County, California, Randy had moved to New Orleans in the spring of 1978, hoping to start a new life. He sent a postcard to his family, indicating that he was working on the SS *President* steamboat and had made some friends. That postcard was the last communication his family ever received from him, and he has not been seen or heard from since.
