Bring the boys home.
The airmen that was just recovered, Thank you for your service, and may his memory be a blessing.
There were remains left? And how were they removed?
I think now he is home.
No longer missing. Perhaps he can now rest in peace.
OMG!!! What a special and very proud moment for his family!! He probably stayed so the rest could get out. What a wonderful moving video xx
Thank you for your service and sacrifice, r.i.p hero
My son just shared this with me.
Good to know he’s finally found.
I can't see the remains. Rest in peace, young man!
I had thought he should have been left to rest until I read he was the sole MIA from his crew and my heart cried out, "Bring Him Home!"
Maga Republicans are wrong. Our POWs, MIAs and KIAs are not losers like their Dotard ckaims. They gave so much.
