Below is a duplicate of one of the POW/MIA Bios. This is what you need to copy and paste to your web page after you have chosen your Adopted POW/MIA. Now there are two ways to copy this text. The first is to highlight the text by left clicking on the text and holding the mouse button down at the same time and moving the cursor over the text. Once the text is highlighted, release the left mouse button and right click the mouse button and a drop down list will appear. Choose copy and click the left mouse button once. Bring up the home page editor and click the right mouse button once, choose Paste and click the left mouse button once. Presto! The highlighted text appears.
Now you will need to insert the proper html tags for paragraphs and breaks so the text will not appear all run together on your web page. For a paragraph break the tag is a p between the symbols < and >. For a sentence break it a br between the symbols < and >.
The second way is by far the easiest. At the top left of your browser you will note the following, File, Edit, View, etc. Click on View, and choose Page Source by clicking the left mouse button once. Highlight the text as described above, only this time, on your keyboard push the control+C at the same time, then paste it to your page as described above. The advantage to this is that you copy everything including the html tags so you don't have to insert them later.

REMARKS:
SYNOPSIS:
As the helicopter picked up the team 4 miles inside Laos west of Dak Sut, it
received a heavy volume of small arms fire. It is not known whether the
aircraft was hit by hostile fire or hit a tree, but it nosed over, impacted
the ground and exploded, bursting into flames.
The pilot, co-pilot and one passenger managed to leave the aircraft. Because
of the fire and exploding small arms ammunition, rescue attempts for the
others were futile.
There were six U.S. and 3 indigenous personnel aboard the helicopter. When
search teams reached the site the same day, they could not account for the
other U.S. personnel. Five were accounted for, but could not be recovered
because of intense heat.
Dye, Glover and Griffith were classified as Missing In Action. They did not
return when the general prisoner release occurred in 1973. Since the war
ended, evidence mounts that Americans were left behind in enemy prison camps
and that hundreds of them could be alive today. They deserve better than the
abandonment they received from the country they proudly served. |
