NOT FORGOTTEN
BILL...WHILE WE NEVER MET IN THIS LIFE, I WANTED YOU TO KNOW THAT MY THOUGHTS ARE WITH YOU. I RECENTLY STARTED WEARING YOUR POW/MIA BRACELET. WE SHARE SOME SIMILAR LIFE EXPERIENCES. I AM ALSO LDS AND GREW UP IN POCATELLO. I WAS 18 IN 1974, THE LAST YEAR OF THE DRAFT. MY BIRTHDAY, APRIL 5TH, WAS THE 5TH PICK THAT YEAR. FORTUNATELY, NO ONE WAS DRAFTED FROM THAT YEAR. I NEVER KNEW ANYONE THAT SERVED IN VIETNAM, YET MY FRIENDS AND I GREW UP IN THE SHADOWS OF THAT AWFUL WAR PREPARING TO SERVE. I WILL BE FOREVER GRATEFUL FOR THE SACRIFICES YOU AND OTHERS MADE IN MY BEHALF.

Still Waiting
Bill,
Every day since you went down in your helicopter June 18, 1967, I searched for you. The last day I flew was Christmas Day of 1967 and I made once last flight looking. You are still missing and I still want you to come home.It took us 3 1/2 months to find your helocopter, but you are still there. God, bring Bill home!

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:
