Help bring our people home from these foreign lands. Adopt a POW/MIA, give them and their families all our support. The government of America may have forgotten them, given up the fight to have them all, (over 2000), returned home, but let's show them that we, the American people, haven't forgotten them. When you adopt a POW/MIA, write to your Congressmen and state Senators demanding action to bring your adoptee and others like him/her home. That's the least we can do for them after all they did for us. |
Thanks to a friend of Johnny's sister for the picture below of
SFC Johnny C. Calhoun.

This is my POW/MIA:
Adopted May 22, 1998 Name: Johnny C. Calhoun
And this is his story: SYNOPSIS: MACV-SOG (Military
Assistance Command, Vietnam Studies and Observation Group). MACV-SOG was a joint service
high command unconventional warfare task force engaged in highly classified operations
throughout Southeast Asia. The 5th Special Forces channeled personnel into MACV-SOG
(although it was not a Special Forces group) through Special Operations Augmentation
(SOA), which provided their "cover" while under secret orders to MACV-SOG. The
teams performed deep penetration missions of strategic reconnaissance and interdiction
which were called, depending on the time frame, "Shining Brass" or "Prairie
Fire" missions. (Please click the graphic below to go to great military graphics pages.)
Maybe someone served with this
young man in Viet Nam Someone knew him, heard him speak of his family, his hometown.
Someone knew his hopes, dreams, and his fears. In my book, he is a real hero
of this Asian war, as were so many of our fighting men and women. If you know him
please contact me. Thanks. |
