THE WALL OF FACES

I am the Curator of the POW/MIA Bracelet Display in the Vietnam Hangar of the Palm Springs Air Museum in Palm Springs, California where we now have over two thousand bracelets honoring POWs, MIAs and KIAs and would be honored to include your bracelet in our Display should you have one. If you no longer have your bracelet or wish to keep yours or are an immediate family member (spouse, fiancé, sibling, child, grandchild, cousin, niece, nephew, or close friend) I can order one for the Display in your name with funds donated by our Museum visitors.

To one of the finest men I ever knew, and his family.
He was an advisor to our Air Explorer Post in Baton Rouge. He taught us a full aviation ground school, survival skills, and a host of things. His lessons have served me well, in the air and on the ground. Thank you, Major Drake, and thanks to your family for letting me share a part of your life.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. It remains my fervent hope you will be returned home after the passage of so many years.

Never forget.
