This is the copy of the letter I
sent to every elected
official's e-mail link I could find. I borrowed the form
letter from the Operation Just Cause Web site and edited it for
my use. I pray they will listen to us as citizens and
voters and bring home our brothers and sisters.
Dear Sir,
What is being done to determine the fate of 1Lt. Henry "Hank" L. Allen, USAF,
56th Special Operations Wing, Udorn AF TH (RAVENS), officially listed as MIA
as of March 26, 1970
in Laos.
This is an American pilot who has remained on the MIA list for
32 years. Doesn't his devotion to his country award him
the privilege and honor of being buried in his own homeland
soil if he is in fact deceased? Should, by any miracle, 1Lt. Henry "Hank" L.
Allen remain alive, should he be left behind in a
foreign country knowing
his country abandoned him? Do his
family and loved ones not deserve to know
the fate of their son, brother,
friend and loved one nor be allowed to put a closure to
this
after so many years?
Please advise me of any action that is being taken by you or any
other elected or appointed official to determine his fate. In the
event there is nothing being done, please explain why not, and tell me how
you personally plan to correct this and prevent it from
ever happening
again.
Please visit my website dedicated to the 2,063 POW/MIA's we American's left
behind.

This is a copy of a letter I received from Senator
Bill Nelson. As
of today May 23, 2002, it is the only one I received that was not
an auto-response. This to me is sad. Our elected officials seem
to forget they work for us, the people, the citizens of the
United States of America, and yes even those who are missing and unaccounted for.
My thanks and praise to Senator Bill Nelson for his
response.

Dear Ms. Warner:
Thank you for contacting me regarding our country's missing
military personnel and the Defense Prisoner Of War and Missing Personnel
Office (DPMO). As a member of the Senate Armed Services and Foreign
Relations Committees this issue is
something I have been directly involved with and will continue to be in
the future.
The DPMO is program within the Department of Defense that
seeks to achieve the fullest possible accounting of our country's soldiers who are missing in action as a result of service -- from
all wars in history. This office has locations around the world
and is working tirelessly with former enemy countries to account
for those soldiers, sailors, and airmen who are missing.
I care very deeply about this issue and will continue to aid this
program to provide them with necessary resources to conduct
their important services to our country and the families of those
who are missing.
Please feel free to contact me in the future.
If you would like additional information or would like to contact
me in the future, please visit my website,
