Kenneth Adam, father of Chief Master Sgt. Quincy Adam, waits for the burial portion
of his son's funeral service to begin July 27 at Chapel Hill Memorial Cemetery in Kansas City, Kan.
Chief Adam is a Vietnam War veteran who was wissing in action for more than 40 years.
Chief Adam's remains were discovered in Southeast Asia, and he was finally brought home
to be laid to rest, giving his family closure in their lives.

I'm glad he is home too.

It will bring closure.

I'm also glad that Obama didn't use this a s pro military photo op.

Thank you Chief Adam for your service. I, as an American, thank you for your service and your ultimate sacrifice.

Prayers for your family, who at least have closure. May they find comfort in the Lord’s embrace. They have served for 30+ years in the service of the USA.

Interesting that the headline states - "30 years missing in action" ...
while the text of the story says, "missing in action for more than 40 years."

Nevertheless, welcome home.

As we landed and were taxiing to the gate, the senior flight attendant asked that we all remain seated until Sergeant Adam’s nephew had deplaned to perform his escort duties. When we arrived at the gate, she amended her statement to request that we all remain seated until the casket had been offloaded, and positioned herself in the aisle to ensure that her request was honored. There was some – very little, actually – grumbling, which she silenced by saying that both she and her husband were ex-marines, and she felt that this was the least we could do.

Nice writeup by another Viet Nam Vet who did make it home.

I, too, thank the family of this hero. I'm so glad he's finally home.

ps:

Never mess with a Marine. They stay stay seated...stay seated.

And smile.

As a 21-gun salute rang

Incorrect. Three rifle volleys, not a 21-gun salute. Senior Airman Kenny Holston and his editors should know better.

My prayers and heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of Chief Master Sergeant Quincy Adams.
Thank you for your service and sacrifices Airman.
Rest in Peace
