    Retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Richard Kibbey peers at the urn of U.S. Air Force Col. Richard A. Kibbey on Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, Oct. 29, 2021. Kibbey and Senior Airman Chad M. Koon attended Col. Richard A. Kibbey's Chain of Custody ceremony as surviving family members, where they formally received his remains. While conducting a rescue and recovery mission in an HH-3E helicopter over North Vietnam, Kibbey and fellow aircrew received enemy fire which resulted in an internal explosion and crash. Kibbey was officially identified on Aug. 6, 2021. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. James Thompson)
