Memorial bracelet
I still have my memorial bracelet for major John Held. I always wanted to send it to his family, but I didn’t want to stir emotions. God bless

Remembering John
I was 11 when I got my MIA/POW bracelet. I saved up my allowance to pay for it. It cost $2.00 and my allowance was 10 cents! I wore the bracelet for years, then it broke into 2 pieces. So I have it put away. John thank you for your years of service. Your family also for their years of sacrifices. Some day I hope to visit the wall to find your name.

honoring you...
Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrances from those who wear/wore your MIA bracelet are moving and reflect their admiration and respect for you. It remains my fervent hope you will be returned home after the passage of so many years.

Never Forgotten
I, too wore your POW/MIA bracelet for many years and still have it. I have never forgotten your name or date. My father also served in Vietnam with the USAF and my sister passed on April 17 before you were lost. Someday I will make it to the wall to honor you properly, you are remembered.
