May 26, 1955 - November 8, 1974

PFC Joel Dansby's watch ended while in a military police jeep, escorting a private motor vehicle to Womack Army Hospital. A woman in the private vehicle was giving birth. He was going through a red light at an intersection when from perpendicular to PFC Dansby's direction of travel a car went around three to four other vehicles which had yielded to his blue light and siren. The car struck the military police vehicle on the side injuring another Military Police from the 82nd  Military Police Company and killing PFC Dansby.

The teenage driver of the car that caused the crash was subsequently found not guilty in court because the siren on PFC Dansby's jeep did not meet minimum standards for loudness.
