THE WALL OF FACES

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:

PRIVATE FIRST CLASS


JEFFREY JEROME YOUNG


served with


COMPANY ' C '

1st BATTALION

61st INFANTRY

5th INFANTRY DIVISION



== == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == ==



On 3 April 1970,

Private First Class Jeffrey Jerome Young

was killed during a hill assault in Quang Tri Province, South Vietnam.


His body was placed with other dead and wounded in the vicinity.


After checking the area where the dead and wounded had been

placed, an officer of the unit stated that all had been evacuated.


A few days later, it was learned that PFC Young was not among

those taken out of the battle area. Other units fighting in the area

looked for him, but never found any trace of him.


Because no body was ever found for PFC Young, he is listed with

honor among the missing. For his family, there can be no doubt that

he died in battle. Unfortunately, however, there is no body to bury.
