Default May They Rest in Peace Finally

It was in the San Antonio Express News this morning, and many other papers I would guess, about 2 crewmen from a B-57B Canberra that were apparently killed in a midday crash in Laos in April 1965 have been positively identified as Maj Arthur Baker and Col. James Lewis.

These men had been MIA till 1974, then moved to KIA, (Baker first), they can now be put to rest. Col. Lewis's remains will be buried in Marshall, Texas Aug, 13th.

May we some day welcome home the last of our brothers but for Maj. Baker and Col. Lewis, Welcome Home at last and may you finally rest in peace.
