    US service men remains are being identified

    I was reading through the Pacific Wrecks website and found this link.



    Good to see that the MIA's of WW2, Korea and Vietnam are being recovered and identified on a regular basis. Not many of these are reported in the news.

    Of course not....that would be "good" news, and doesn't have the shock-value or potential for keeping the masses glued to the TV (and thusly, increasing ratings). Nice find, though, Sys. Bring our boys home!

    My cousin, Lt Scott Dotson, remains were located in Laos and identified. This was about 5 years ago, his burial was covered by the media. More so by the local media of course, only a one minute or less segment national. But it was noted.
    I've seen others also, maybe so brief that you just don't remember them.
    What is weird is a website devoted to the missing hasn't been updated as to his recovery.

    I still remember Scotty and his brother, they introduced me to flying when I was 14.
