"This is an awsome book dealing with one of those secret parts of the Viet Nam conflict. What made this book so wonderful for me is that the beginning of the book talks about my cousin, Howard Keith Williams. I remember when he became and MIA and then many years later when his remain were located and sent back for burial."
