Default With a bit of luck the last coming home

The RAAF has indicated that it has pin pointed the crash of a RAAF Canberra bomber, lost with both crew during the Vietnam war.

The RAAF are now to conduct a grid survey and excavation, which with a bit of luck, will enable the two crew to come home.

A great effort and one very pleased to hear about.

Regards

Col

I hope so, Col... and may God rest their souls.

As you probably know, in recent years we have unearthed the remains of several Canadian soldiers previously listed as 'missing in action' in Europe, and they have received proper military funerals with all attendant fanfare - I hope the same for your airmen.

Please keep us posted.
