High tech has been used to find airman lost in 1967

 For the first time, the government has partnered with a private company to help find MIA's from the Vietnam war that were lost at sea. The first Major to die, Major Paul A. Avolese was found in the south china sea by robots and then divers. It's a great story to read and good to know the government is doing everything it can to bring home those who have been lost in the Vietnam war.

    Next month is POW MIA day. We will be having a small ceremony at the Nam Vets soldier statue. The New York Times reported this in the Globe on Monday Aug 2nd.
