I am the namesake of a soldier resting in Manilla. My Dad’s brother. My Dad knew where he was, but not what happened. I spent a lot of time putting together the story as best I could for him.

My wife’s uncle was in graves registration in WWII in the Pacific. NYSE told stories of the lengths his group went through to get the boys in the jungles and out of plane crashes in the mountains.

The US Army used to care about this stuff. I cannot imagine what is going on here. This does not sound like the USA I grew up with.

“For the flight across the Atlantic, representatives of the Canadian, German and French military will escort Gordon, Henry said. It’s unclear if the American military will be there, he added.”

If he was gay, they’d have a presidential motorcade. In all seriousness, welcome home Pfc Gordon. Say what you will about the Euroweenies, but they stepped up for one of our fallen.

After the war ended, the Army dug up both sets of remains, finding they wore German clothing. Using fingerprints, one was identified as U.S. Army Pvt. James Bowman, who had been in the turret of the car next to Gordon.

Why German clothing? Spy mission?

“Why is that we had enough evidence to convince the French and the Germans but not the Americans?” Henry asked. “Why is the burden of proof in America so much higher? It’s ludicrous.”

The DoD, under Obastard, is having trouble finding their giveacrap when it comes to helping soldiers.

Could someone please tell me what branch insignia PFC Gordon is wearing?
