Eastern Shore of Maryland LODD | Trooper First Class Thomas Asa Noyle, Maryland State Police

Saturday, May 12th: Today we remember Trooper First Class Thomas Asa Noyle of the Maryland State Police. Tragically, he passed while serving in the line of duty on Saturday, October 28th, 1972, along with Trooper First Class Phillip Lee Russ.

Trooper First Class Thomas Noyle had 5 years and 10 months of service and was happy for every minute he served as a trooper for the State of Maryland. On October 28, 1972, Medic Noyle was riding aboard a medical evaluation equipped helicopter bound for Dorchester General Hospital to transport a patient. Medic Noyle died when the aircraft he was riding encountered thick fog. The pilot, Trooper First Class Phillip Lee Russ, attempted an emergency landing in an empty farming field, instead crashing, and killing both men. Source: ODMP.



"Noyle was trained in advanced first aid and received additional medical training at the University of Maryland for duties as a medic on board the Maryland State Police helicopter. Trooper Noyle, 28, is survived by his wife, Maureen Noyle, and three children, Scott Thomas Noyle, Troy Asa Noyle, and Jode Adrian Noyle". Source:
