Every Holiday since I got Lt Col Donald Paxton’s POW bracelet I have prayed for his family and expressed gratitude to the Lord for him and his service. It was very emotional for me to find his name on the wall at the Vietnam Memorial. At that time he was still unaccounted for. I am so thankful that he is now buried at Arlington on US soil with honor.

Colonel Paxton was a man of great courage. Time and again he climbed into the cockpit of a B-57 Canberra to fly missions over areas in which many men and anti-aircraft weaponry were dedicated to shooting down him and his copilot. But he did it because he was a man of honor and courage who would fulfill his duty.

Dear Col. Donald Paxton, Thank you for your service as a Tactical Aircraft Pilot. So glad you were identified in 2000, welcome home. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. It is Easter Thursday. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.
