THE WALL OF FACES

I learned Brad, a college friend, was MIA many years after I permanently departed RI for my career. Brad's MIA crash occurred within 3 weeks of my return home from VN and I served in that same area of Kontum where he went missing. I established a nice relationship with his Mom, Nan (deceased for many years) & tried to stay in touch with his sister after she relocated to Fla.. I am still deeply depressed that NO INFO on Brad's final resting place has EVER been revealed/ recovered! My only recompense is our GOD protects heroes & those who lives are lost in defense of the poor & afflicted!
I hope somday give Brad a long overdue hug in Heaven but in the meantime encourage our govt to keep searching until ALL US MIA's are accounted for!
Until we meet again, Rest in Peace Kenneth "Brad" Goff!!!

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.

HOOAH

Major Kenneth Bradford Goff Jr., Served with the 4th Replacement Detachment, Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 1st Battalion, 8th Infantry Regiment, 1st Brigade, 4th Infantry Division, First Field Force, United States Army Vietnam.

I went to Roger Williams Jr Coll. w/ Brad and we became good friends before our Army tours. I was discharged & returned to Warwick from VN 2-3 weeks before Brad was declared MIA but didn't learn of his status til decades later. Finally in the 1999's, I made contact w/ his Mom, Nan, who was an amazing, beautifully strong women!! We had one meeting and stayed in touch until her passing after she relocated to Florida. I reside in NJ but have written to RI politicians, Sen. John McCain (while he was well and active in DC), & many others asking them to continue pursuing Brad's final whereabouts. Someone knows the final resting place of Brad! The DOD released a document where a captured VC witnessed 3 Americans being moved "North" by NVA soldiers from the Kontum area in Aug '67= time their chopper went down- one description matched Brad. I believe they captured Brad and two others from that crash and were moving them to a POW camp. I'm convinced NVA and VC military veterans know and want to dlsclose the final whereabouts and resting place of our friend, an American hero, Major. Kenneth ("Brad") Goff - we must continue to pursue his case! I am certain our friend, Brad is reunited w/ his parents and is looking down on each of us from GOD's Heavenly Kingdom!
