Was Staff Sergeant Fitts on your POW/MIA bracelet? My soldier, Maj. Ayers, is still listed as missing in action. It's nice that you have a picture of your soldier.

The Virtual Wall website is where I recently learned of his status, otherwise I would never have known if he had been found or not.

I am feeling melancholy today, remembering the 60's.

Sistah hugs to you........(((((((((dansy)))))))))

Yes, SSgt. Fitts was on my MIA bracelet 30 years ago (!!!).

I featured him on the Memorial Day thread. I was feeling really badly (and still do!) that the bracelet was lost in one of the 20+ moves that I've made over the past 30 years.

I found his picture on the Internet while doing some research on him last year. I remember it as being the same picture that was distributed with the bracelet when I purchased it for a $5.00 donation back then!

Please don't feel melancholy. :-( I understand where you are coming from, but we can't go backwards. We can only look forward. And *that* we need to do with hope, faith and alot of prayers!

I was lucky to be in Texas during the 60s except for a year in Germany(husband's business).I never knew a person who would spit on or denigrate our military.I never witnessed the protests or indeed there were none near me.The nation let our servicemen down and then reneged on aid to the Vietnamese....Jane Fonda is a dirty word.
