These Marines were with PFC Jimmy Widener, a young man from my town, when they were shot down. Jimmy was buried in Arlington back in Nov. 2006:

PFC James Edward Widener

I'm glad that their remains were found and identified and that they're coming home. It's good that the families will have closure.

All,

Gunny our RC wrote the following on our web site:

All Viet Nam Veterans rejoice! One of our MIA’s is missing no more.

On 05 Nov 2008 the PGR welcomed home LCpl. Luis F. Palacios, USMC missing since 06 June 1968.

8 PGR members arrived at the Bob Hope USO at LAX and waited for Luis’s aircraft to arrive. The Airport Police escorted the PGR to post 2 in time for the PGR to greet LCpl Palacios as he left LAX. We then escorted him to Whites Funeral Home.

The PGR then moved him into the chapel area of the funeral home and formally welcomed him home. Each taking a moment to reflect on his long journey and to rejoice that Luis is back in the arms of his loving family and on the soil he bravely fought to protect.

Sempler Fi my Brother.

My comments.

This mission was very short notice (less than 8 hr)

We will render HONORS along with the USMC on fri.

The family invited the PGR.

I will post the after action report of the funeral.
