Title: Nebraska soldier Vietnam MIA finally back home
Post by: RobertH 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.

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