I have been wearing a POW bracelet with your son's name on it since 1994. It has been worn daily through my entire Army career. Although I've never met the Milliner family, or Chief Milliner, he is not forgotten. Thank you for your dedication, and for your heroic son Chief Milliner.

We have lost the matriarch of the POW MIA movement in this part of the country. Mary and Joe symbolized the loss and the lifelong sacrifice that is made by those who count themselves among the POW MIA family members. I will forever miss Mary, and Joe also, and mourn this loss. She is missed. Love you Susan!
