17 Aug 2005 I have worn the name of Col Norman Green on my wrist for over three decades. He is my hero. L. Wheeler wheelersinfreedom@adelphia.net

16 Nov 2006 My mother wore Colonel Norman Green on her wrist throughout high school. I found the bracelet in her room when I was starting high school and I wore it throughout high school. I wouldn't even take it off for dances. I always wondered what he looked like, so I could put a face with the name. He too is also my hero! Kari Kral karikral@hotmail.com

23 Feb 2007 I've just received a MIA bracelet from a special friend who lives in the US. The history of this man caused me a very significant feeling of a real human hero. As a military jet figther pilot, I'm really proud of wearing his name in my hand, the same hand that controls my aircraft, every time I use the air power in order to bring peace to my country. 2nd Lt.

A Note from The Virtual Wall On 09 Jan 1968 F-4D tail number 66-8729 from the 497th Tac Fighter Squadron at Ubon RTAFB was shot down near Bay Kapay in Laos, about 20 miles west of the Demilitarized Zone. There was no evidence suggesting that either crewman ejected before ground impact, but both men was classed as Missing in Action. They remained in that status until the Secretary of the Air Force approved Presumptive Findings of Death on the dates shown below. The two men were Col Norman M. Green, Washington, DC (07/17/1978) Capt Wayne C. Irsch, Tulsa, OK (01/09/1974) Their remains have not been repatriated.
