My wife's youngest brother passed away recently, and while going through his personal effects, I found a ziplock bag with a metal bracelet and a photocopied sheet of paper. The bracelet is inscribed with the name of Bruce Wayne Staehli, his unit, and the date he was MIA.

There is no idication of what organization provided this bracelet and information, and I suppose it does not matter. What matters is that this brave Marine gave his all for his country and will not be forgotten, even by someone who never knew him, never met him, and never knew he existed until a week ago.

My daughter was in the Marines, and her husband is in the Marines. Both have served multiple tours in the Middle East.

I intend to put the bracelet and the information sheet into a nice frame and display it respectfully for everyone to see, in the hopes that it will keep his memory alive. If anyone has updated information, or wants a copy of my info sheet, feel free to contact me.

God Bless Our Troops. God Bless America.
