06 Nov 2002 Dad, You may not be here physically, but you will always be here in spirit. You have not been forgotten MIA-POW's families to become a POW to any and every war It will be 35 years on March 2003. With wars still happening I can't even begin to imagine how many others will become MIA-POW's. My prayers go out to any and all servicemen and their families. Thank you for this opportunity to share my thoughts and prayers Debbie 15 Mar 2006 It has now been 3 more years since the last update on this website and still no answer or word on what has happened to the MIA/POW's from the Vietnam War. Now we have another war in process, so we will have even more men unaccounted for from our Service men and women. These men are constantly in our prayers. It has been 38 years since my dad became missing and still no answer. My prayers go out to the rest of the family and friends of MIA/POW'S. From his daughter, Debbie Holland-Duyck 07 Jun 2007 Thank you to the wonderful people I have received emails from people regarding bracelets and just letting me know that they care. That means so much to my family and I. I thank William Jordan for sending me his bracelet since he had the POW/MIA emblem and my dad's name tattooed on his arm. What an honor. This website has been such a blessing and thank you for everything. Still no word as my mom gets ready to go out to Washington DC again to see what information they may have for her this year. My prayers are with the families of those who are involved with the current war. God Bless all of you. From his daughter, Debbie sewmama2001@yahoo.com November 1965

 

22 Jan 2007 I am a 15 year old girl, who has been raised in the military. I am a Civil Air Patrol cadet, which is a branch of the USAF. I was at Selfridge AB in Michigan, for a Cadet Advisory Council meeting. When going to the PX/BX I ran accross a POW/MIA Bracelet. There were three bracelets there. I picked up the first bracelet and it happend to be TSgt Melvin A. Holland. I was amazed and bought it right then and there, no questions asked. It was very ironic, because of the whole USAF and me being in CAP, and I just happend to get promoted to a Cadet TSgt just the week after. I am very found of the bracelet, and haven't taken it off since. I was searching for TSgt Holland on the net and came across this site. I get to visit DC in February with CAP, and hopefully will get to go to the Wall, if so I plan on getting TSgt Holland's name rubbing. Just having the bracelet means so much to me, knowing that there were and still are people out there who haven't been found, and still need our support. For those soldiers of yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Krista cadetmclean9991@yahoo.com
