POW bracelet
For many years I wore a steel bracelet with his name and his date of missing. I prayed for him every night. I would love to meet his family.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. I am heartened you returned home after the passage of so many years though I wish it had been under very different circumstances. May you rest in eternal peace.

Thank You
Dear Cap. William Powell, Thank you for your service as a Tactical Aircraft Pilot. Glad you were identified in 1988. Welcome home. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Flag Day is soon. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

As a kid in the 1970s, I wore the POW/MIA bracelet with your name on it
I think it broke in half at some point in time, and I didn't hang onto the pieces. While I'm sorry to just learn in 2020 about your premature demise, I'm glad your family stateside may've had some closure with the return of your remains almost 20 years ago. I thank you for your service and sacrifice.
