Not to dispute the exisence of living MIAs (I don't know) but...

We are supposed to take the word of ONE unnamed source?!?! When Reagan is not mentally fit to defend himself? Get real.

Isn’t it interesting that stories about Lost or left behind Vets only show up during Republican presidencies?

A few years ago I read a study, that tried to determine how many Vets could have been left behind. They took the US Governments figure of 2,000 MIA’s and studied the stories of the MIA. Most MIA’s are listed as such because there is no dead body. If a jet full of fuel explodes and the pilot is vaporized there is no body so he is listed as a MIA. The study concluded that realistically, the most that cannot be accounted for is less than 50 men. The majority of these were foot soldiers who’s reason for disappearance could not be determined. It is highly un-likely that this men would have any value as hostages to the Viet-Nam government.

As most lies, 30 years after the war and there is still no proof that anyone was left behind. Yet, some how it is a Government conspiracy that keeps the truth from the American people.
