Relatives Press for Full Accounting of MIAs in Vietnam
A group of Santa Clara County POW MIA families demand Hanoi publish the fate of about 1,201 missing Americans and disclose Laos captives. Wives and sisters urge an official accounting as hundreds wait anxiously for word, some noting names missing from North Vietnamese lists. One wife cites her husband shot down over Laos in 1970 and seeks confirmation of his status.
