In Memory of SEA KIAs
AC-119 Brothers Lost in Southeast Asia
Always remembered, never forgotten
Our Killed In Action (KIA) brothers and their families epitomize & memorialize
“All gave some; Some gave ALL”
IMPORTANT: We must not inflict more pain on our KIA families and brothers in arms. To avoid that, we created a single Point Of Contact for ALL AC-119 KIA interactions. NOTHING occurs related to our KIAs without going through him. Contact our POC Wayne Laessig.
We also recognize our Nations’ POW/MIA with a solemn ceremony at our Reunion Banquets.
We’ve held Memorials at Reunions and created a Memorial Plaque at the Air Memorial Park in Hurlburt Field. You can view info on those below.
