Members of the U.S. Army Band, “Pershing’s Own,” and the 3d U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) march down Bradley Drive during a graveside service in Arlington National Cemetery, June 17, 2015, in Arlington, Va. The graveside service was for four soldiers who had gone missing from the Vietnam War. According to the Department of Defense, “On Jan. 9, 1968, the crew was on a mission over Quang Tin Province (now part of Quang Nam Province), South Vietnam, when the Huey was struck by ground fire, causing it to crash and explode in a North Vietnamese bunker and trench system. The crew was declared missing in action. On Jan. 20, 1968, a U.S. led team recovered the body of Secrist and he was returned to his family for burial.” (U.S. Army photo by Rachel Larue/released)
