POWs Wife Spends Her Eighth Lonely Christmas
In Burlington Vermont Mrs Laurette Cook, wife of Marine Maj Donald G Cook missing in Vietnam since 1964, voices despair over peace talks and continues to support POW families. She criticizes bombing raids and plans a quiet Christmas with family, while Pope Paul VI plans midnight Mass at a Mt Soratte site and New Year’s visits to injured children.
