Nebraska soldier Vietnam MIA finally back home
« on: September 30, 2009, 06:22:50 PM »
A Nebraska native who was MIA in Vietnam is now back in his hometown of Laurel after his remains have finally been identified.  My father knew him and he always talked about him when we went to Memorial Day services.  I'm glad to see this story finally have an ending.

Today, we need a nation of Minutemen, citizens who are not only prepared to take arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as the basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom.   J. F. K.

I have to say the picture in the OWH was pretty sweet with all the Freedom Riders escorting the procession.
