<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GrimReaper, post: 1258955, member: 2584&quot;]Guys this gives me chills to the bone , but a wonderful story !! This is the brother of a close Family Friend and I just wanted to share with you guys . Soldiers remains will be laid to rest Sept. 26th , 2011 ...., 45 Years to the day after being shot down on Sept. 26th , 1966 . It has been a tough time for the family not knowing all these years whether he was a P.O.W. , lost , dead or what and this has brought some much needed closure for the family . </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; The helicopter was shot down and him being the gunner had fallen out and pinned underneath where he had died . Long story short chopper was seen going down by a village woman and reported it then and years later now . There was one survivor (Pilot) , one or two others were recovered&nbsp; from wreckage and then the brothers remains (Gunner) who now is returning home !! Would have been better if he would have came home alive but at least he wasn&#039;t tortured as a P.O.W. for 45 yrs . Anyway I thought some of you would like to hear about this .</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.wsmv.com/story/15382261/soldiers-remains-returning-to-tennessee" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.wsmv.com/story/15382261/soldiers-remains-returning-to-tennessee" rel="nofollow">Linky</a> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thank You for Your Sevice , Past or Present !![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
