Randolph Robert Hamm, known as Randy, was 25 when he vanished from Klamath Falls, Oregon, on the evening of January 14, 1975. He was last seen near Idella’s store at South 6th Street and Wiard Street wearing a blue shirt, blue jeans, and brown dress shoes that zipped up. A United States Marine Corps veteran and father of two, Hamm had burn scars on his back and feet with skin grafts from his thighs, plus tattoos reading USMC on his right upper arm and a devil’s face on his left upper arm.

Reports say he was with a friend, Bruce Wirth, the night he disappeared; after that the trail went cold. There were no notes, no signs of a struggle, and no indication he intended to leave, and investigators have come to suspect he was killed and that his remains might be in an unmarked grave in Klamath County. The case remains unresolved and the family continues to seek answers.

If anyone knew Randy, saw him that night, or has information about his whereabouts, please share what you know.
