MIA Bracelet Found

I was a teenager in Michigan when I received my MIA bracelet with Major Claflin's name on it. I found it recently when I was moving. My brother was also in Vietnam so it meant a great deal to me to wear it and to pray that both of them returned safely. I've always wondered what had happened to him and if his name was on the wall. Today I found this site. I live in Annapolis now and will look for his name next time I am in DC. I am so grateful for his service to his country. My brother made it home safely. He worked helping veteran's get jobs and was a Veteran for Peace in Michigan along with his dear friend, Gary Bjorkquist.

Bracelet

I also wore Capt Richard Claflin’s bracelet in the 70’s. I just found it again and decided to search the internet for his name. He died a hero. I pray that his family has found peace. Thank God for the brave men and women who serve our country.
