It has come to my attention that Brigadier-General Alonzo J. Walter, USAF (ret.) passed away on 13 August 2022, aged 93. He was born 25 November 1928 and was one of the 32 finalists for the role of Mercury astronaut.

His passing means that only two of the finalists are still with us: Frank Frazier and James Lovell.
