I ask that you send this out to your local news media (print and otherwise). Then perhaps if time permit's send this to friends and family and ask them to do the same. Currently we have one man hostage, all though that has slipped the news, and this fine soldier that we no longer hear about. While there is never an excuse for lack of news worthiness, HE IS THE ONLY ONE currently/on going who is MISSING!

We must not forget him, we must let his family know that his fellow American's keep him in our prayers and wish him a speedy return back into the arms of his family and his fellow soldiers. Yep, a little mushy, his fellow soldiers are like family.

I cannot think of anything more difficult than having to endure yet another Mother's Day without knowing of her son's plight.

Thanks for letting me rant.

May sound corny, but perhaps a bumper/window sticker campaign is in order? Something like "Remember Sgt. Maupin," or "Matt Maupin-POW."

Sounds like a good idea. People interested in helping to remind the hill and the US of POW/MIA issue may want to visit Rolling Thunder.There are petitions online to remind congress to reinstate the POW status. The annual Ride for Freedom is coming up.

Having a family member MIA effects the entire family for years and years. Our family was lucky we had a member returned after thirty years. At least we can now know where he was and where he is buried when we run across his photo in the family album. This family only has the haunting face of a frightened loved one and no answers to where he is now. We can't let America forget that.

Bump for Sgt. Maupin. My POW bracelet (which I am wearing) is now incorrect. He is listed as PFC. I will not forget him.

Thank you for the reminder regarding Sgt. Maupin. I just said a deep prayer for him. Please know that I do think of him and pray for him and his family. I do pray for all our precious military folks, but Sgt. Maupin really bothers me. May he not be forgotten.
