| MIA
Facts |
This
site is published to provide facts about the issue of Americans who
remain "missing in action" (MIA) from the Vietnam War. At the conclusion
of the Vietnam War, 2,583 Americans did not return. A vast mythology
has built up around what really happened to these individuals. Mis-information,
pseudo-history, deliberate fabrication are rampant. As a result, myths
are regularly proclaimed to be fact. |
| Thailand
- Laos - Cambodia Brotherhood |
The
Brotherhood stretched across Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia. We were
civilians, military (all branches of service). We were pilots, mechanics,
navigators, weathermen, drivers, security police and cooks. We were
on or over the front line, on bases you saw on TV and some that few
people even knew existed. We fought the war you heard about and the
war you didn't. We didn't look for glory or ask for medals, we were
called and we went. A lot of us didn't return........ |

At
the entrance to the Minnesota Governor’s office, there is a small
shrine dedicated to the memory of the soldiers who are missing in
action in the Vietnam War. It contains a POW/MIA flag and a small
plaque, noting that the shrine was contributed by an organization
called "Red Badge of Courage". That organization was really
one man -- Adrian Fisch, of St James, Minnesota

| DENNIS
& JOYCE ADAMSCHECK |
In
1984, Dennis Adamscheck was at a meeting of his local VFW Post 3979
in Cloquet, Minnesota when someone passed around a cup for donations
to the POW/MIA cause. Dennis looked at the few dimes and quarters
contributed and wondered what this pitiful collection meant. He went
home and began looking into the POW/MIA issue. |
| POW/MIA
Bio's |
1948
Americans still unaccounted for from the Vietnam war. What makes these
special is that they ALL are on the list of "last known alive" (a
list created by the US government to aid in obtaining the fullest
possible accounting). Most of these men are included in catagory 1,
meaning the Vietnamese government should have information on the whereabouts
of these men. Java warning. |

| Kiss
the Truth Good-bye |
Summary.
The book Kiss the Boys Good-bye by Monika Jensen-Stevenson is one
of the "bibles" of the POW-MIA issue. Sad. This book is seriously
flawed. It is poorly researched, filled with hearsay, rumor, and unverified
"sources." In a word, it is nonsense. |

Errol,
have you ever spent time with any H'mong refugees, ex ARVN or Cambodians,
don't get me wrong i don't have any axe to grind against US, they
saved NZ from becoming rice eaters in WW2 but their govt within Govt
waging little wars & then ditching them is disgusting. |
