| Missing in America You have to check out this tragic story about veterans that have passed away and their cremains are sitting on a shelf waiting to be buried. These are veterans that have fought for our country, returned home, and then later passed away. It is touching and may bring a tear to your eye. Be sure to click on the video of the Northern California service at the top of the webpage. Missing in America Project

| I can not take the credit for this one. Mrs. Army Strong brought this one home to me. She has been working on this in Kansas since October. She is the POC for Kansas. So far she has not been able to find any service members in Kansas, but has found a spouse and is awaiting cremains.

| I had no idea that veterans were ending up in boxes on shelves in random places. Thanks for the video! It was definately informative. Everybody deserves a proper burial..not a box!
