Sometimes it's overwhelming. We get care packages at times faster than we can use them. There are boxes and boxes of toiletries and snacks lining the center of every tent; the generosity has been amazing. So, I was pondering the question: "Why do we have so much support?"</span></b></span></dd><dd style="line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #eeeeee; color: blue; font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 17px; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">In my opinion, it all came down to one thing: Vietnam Veterans. I think we learned a lesson, as a nation, that no matter what, you have to support the troops who are on the line, who are risking everything. We treated them so poorly back then. When they returned was even worse. The stories are nightmarish of what our returning warriors were subjected to. It is a national scar, a blemish on our country, an embarrassment to all of us.</span></b></span></dd><dd style="line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #eeeeee; color: blue; font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 17px; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">After Vietnam , it had time to sink in. The guilt in our collective consciousness grew. It shamed us. However, we learned from our mistake. Somewhere during the late 1970's and on into the 80's, we realized that we can't treat our warriors that way. So ... Starting during the Gulf War, when the first real opportunity arose to stand up and support the troops, we did. We did it to support our friends and family going off to war. But we also did it to right the wrongs from the Vietnam era. We treat our troops of today like the heroes they were, and are, acknowledge and celebrate their sacrifice, and rejoice at their homecoming ... Instead of spitting on them.</span></b></span></dd><dd style="line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #eeeeee; color: blue; font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 17px; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">And that support continues today for those of us in Iraq . Our country knows that it must support us and it does. The lesson was learned in Vietnam and we are all better because of it.</span></b></span></dd><dd style="line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #eeeeee; color: blue; font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 17px; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Everyone who has gone before is a hero. They are celebrated in my heart. I think admirably of all those who have gone before me. From those who fought to establish this country in the late 1770's to those I serve with here in Iraq . They have all sacrificed to ensure our freedom. But when I get back home, I'm going to make it a personal mission to specifically thank every Vietnam Vet I encounter for THEIR sacrifice. Because if nothing else good came from that terrible war, one thing did. It was the lesson learned on how we treat our warriors. We as a country learned from our mistake and now we treat our warriors as heroes, as we should have all along. I am the beneficiary of their sacrifice. Not only for the freedom they, like veterans from other wars, ensured, but for how well our country now treats my fellow Marines and I. We are the beneficiaries of their sacrifice.</span></b></span></dd><dd style="line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #eeeeee; color: blue; font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 17px; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Semper Fidelis,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></b></span></dd><dd style="line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: #eeeeee; color: blue; font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 17px; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Major Brian P.

Holm <font face="Arial, Helvetica" size="3">Article published May 27, 2011<br></font><font face="Arial, Helvetica" size="3"><font size="5"><b>Remains found of Waterford native Holm; died in helicopter crash in Vietnam in 1972</b></font><br><a href="mailto:s.chupaska@theday.com">Stephen Chupaska</a><br><hardreturn>It took nearly 39 years and countless hours of painstaking work, but it seems fitting that the news about the remains of Army Capt. Arnold E. Holm comes now, as Americans remember their war dead on Memorial Day weekend.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>The Defense Prisoner of War Missing Personnel Office said Friday that they have made a “group identification” of the remains of Holm, a Waterford native whose helicopter was shot down in Vietnam in 1972, and two of his crewmates.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>According to spokesman Larry Greer, bone fragments from Holm and two others involved in the crash could not be individually certified. But Greer said there is enough biological material and bits of debris found at the crash site to deduce that the fragments belong to Holm and the others crew members, Pfc. Wayne Bibbs of Illinois and Spc. Robin Yeakley of Indiana.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>“It’s as good as you can get,” Greer said.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>Holm’s widow, Margarete Holm, who is retired and living Lebanon, Pa., had hoped more remains would be found.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>“But one has to be realistic,” she said Friday in a telephone interview. <br>Greer said the “group identification” process is common during violent plane crashes and similar disasters.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>The families of all three servicemen needed to approve of the group identification before the Defense POW Mission Personal Office released the information to the public.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>On June 11, 1972, Holm’s Cayuse Scout helicopter came under fire while flying over Thua Thien-Hue province in northcentral Vietnam. The aircraft crashed to the ground, and the ordnance it carried exploded.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>Greer said the helicopter was carrying phosphorus grenades, which give off intense heat when detonated.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>“That’s one of the reasons it was difficult to find remains,” Greer said. <br>According to reports, a second helicopter sent to rescue Holm and his crewmates was also shot down.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>Michael Austin, a retired helicopter pilot who was stationed at the same base in Vietnam as Holm, said in 2002 that “June 11 and June 12 were just a devastating couple of days for that platoon.”<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>Greer said the Defense Department launched six investigations since 1997 to locate the remains of the three servicemen and a number of factors plagued the search, which in addition to forensic evidence, included interviews with American military personnel and local villagers. <br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>Greer said that there were 20 reported crashes of the same type of helicopter Holm flew in a 15-kilometer radius of the suspected crash site.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>“There were investigations into all 20 crashes,” Greer said, adding that some the information became muddled.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>Greer said that wreckage from the crashes was heavily scavenged by people living near the site, further complicating the search.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>The Vietnamese Office For Seeking Missing Persons, which acted as guides to the crash site and conducted searches on their own, assisted American teams. <br>The Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command (JPAC) excavated the crash site during the summer of 2008 and recovered a small amount of remains. JPAC later said DNA tests were inconclusive.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>In 2008, search teams found two dog tag fragments belonging to Yeakley. <br>“That nailed the fact,” Greer said.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>Born in 1944 in New London, Holm grew up on Tiffany Avenue in Waterford and excelled at basketball, football and baseball at Waterford High School. <br>He enlisted in the Army in 1962, where he earned a commission. Holm was 28 when he died.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>Austin said in 2002 that Holm “was the most exceptional scout (he) ever worked with.” <br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>“He was aggressive, but he was never careless,” Austin said. “He didn’t shy away from anything. He led by example.”<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>Margarete Holm said a burial service has been tentatively scheduled for October at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia, but that she would also be holding a service at the Church of the Redeemer, in New London, the same church where she and Holm were married in 1966.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>According to military protocol, the remains from the crash will be buried together and the names of Holm, Bibbs and Yeakley will be carved onto a single marker and join the rows of white gravestones in the nation’s most hallowed ground.<br class="hardreturn"><hardreturn>s.chupaska@theday.com<br class="hardreturn"><br></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></hardreturn></font> <div></div>Blueghostredhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05296537076330205719noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8513767739226700226.post-38794740273340634722011-05-08T16:48:00.000-07:002012-11-21T16:33:25.871-08:00James D Marett<h1 style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;">
