Not Forgotten
I have not forgotten you. I chair the Adoption Committee for The National League of Families of Prisoners of War and Missing in Action in Southeast Asia. We will always remember the 1,889 Americans still unaccounted for in Southeast Asia and the thousands of others that lost their lives. We will not stop our efforts until all of you are home where you belong.
We need to reach the next generation so that they will carry on when our generation is no longer able. To do so, we are attempting to locate photographs of all the missing. If you are reading this remembrance and have a photo and/or memory of this missing American that you would like to share for our project, please contact me at:

Not Forgotten
We lived two doors down from the Coons family at that time. Our families were Navy friends and neighbors and the daughter was my best friend in elementary school. I remember the day we got off the school bus and saw the many cars parked at their home. All the drapes were drawn and an ominous feeling came over us. A short while later, she ran over to my house to tell me that her father had been shot down. We were 10 1/2 years old. I have eternal gratitude for the freedom these veterans have won for me and my family today. Cdr. Coons will be remembered and missed.
