May they all rest in peace and may thier families feel some comfort in thier homecoming..It Just makes us remember our boys are still in Viet Nam and we want them All home.
I still wear LTJG. Raymond V. DE Blasio's bracelet, hes listed as Killed In Action, Body Not recovered.
I pray for the boys who finally made it home, but also for our boys who still remain there.
May they all come home to us one day. |

The news release says six but we count five. I don't know why there is a discrepancy...

God bless their souls, their comrades, their families and the United States of America.
In the grand scheme of things (election and all) our fallen heroes and living veterans are a testament to all that is and will remain good about this country.

After reading through, many times, all the pages within the website of the late Col. Ted Guy, who worked very hard at trying to get the U.S. government to demand a full accounting of our P.O.W./M.I.A.'s who have still not "come home", I have developed a deep appreciation for these men. I believe that Col. Guy's spirit is still inspiring many here on earth. I thank all these heroes and their families for the ultimate price they were willing to pay to ensure my freedom and America's freedom. My heart is very heavy with sadness at the loss, but I am also grateful to the people who never forgot these men, and that for some of the families, their loved ones are now home. May God bless them and bring them peace.
I hope we continue to find all of our missing men until all are accounted for.
Thank you, RogerRabbit, for providing the link to "Taps".
