MIA Bracelet
I was given a MIA bracelet with your name on it in 2002 at AFJROTC camp. I never once took it off in the 12 years I've owned it until it snapped in two a few weeks ago. I looked at it every day multiple times wondering who you were and what happened to you. Godspeed.

Remembering An American Hero
Dear Major Thomas Patterson Hanson, sir
As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.
May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.
With respect, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir
Curt Carter
