I wore a MIA/POW Bracelet for Lt. James E. Teague until they notified me that he had been brought home. A very sad time for me. I used to look at his bracelet every day and pray and wonder where and how he was. All these years since, I would think of him and his family and how their lives changed with his death. John 15:13 - "No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friend." I have read the summary of his mission and the shootdown sequence provided by Theodore G. Stier CDR, USN (Ret.) I have always wondered what happened. It brought all the feeling back like it just happened. Always wanted to get in contact with his family and tell them how sorry I was and that I prayed for him every day but did not have the resources. Thanks. Gail |
In the 1970's, we wore Prisoner of War (P.O.W.) bracelets. Today, we also keep others in our memories; Victims of Terrorism and Military Casualties. To keep the memory alive of those who have died at the hands of terrorists or fighting terrorism, we now also wear Memorial Bracelets. People from all over the country are wearing bracelets from Memorial Bracelets located at www.memorialbracelets.com for their own very personal reasons. Below are some of the stories that we have received.
