Hi, Ed, I’d just like to remind everyone that Sept. 21 is National POW-MIA Recognition Day. Their sacrifice ensured our freedom, and we need to let the POWs, MIAs and their families know they are not forgotten by many veterans. If our government isn’t going to help locate them, send us back. I’ll go. How many people still keep that flame burning for these guys who have been missing and unaccounted for by the Vietnamese government for years? The Vietnamese were known to keep the French prisoners of war forever after the French fell in Vietnam in 1954. Our citizens need a history on other POWs. Other than flying the black POW-MIA flag, what are we and our government doing to keep their memory and hope alive? Help me out, Back Talk.

A vet who still cares

You don’t hear about this anymore. It seems people really have forgotten. Thanks for reminding our readers.
