My dad has lost contact with his brother, Henry Jr., so we are unsure where he may be. The Begley family is very large in Eastern Kentucy. Please contact me if you get this at donnajmcintyre@yahoo.com.<br /><br />My dad also served in Viet Nam and, fortunately, returned home. He is now 80 and, even though he is younger, talks about Burriss all the time. He even has a picture/memorial on the mantel in the den.<br /><br />Thanks for honoring Col. Begley by wearing his bracelet and carrying him in your heart.<br /><br />Donna Begley McIntyreAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17926977.post-42624887807969633382011-05-20T17:58:35.946-04:002011-05-20T17:58:35.946-04:00I too have Col Burriss N Begley's POW-MIA brac...I too have Col Burriss N Begley's POW-MIA bracelet. I had a chance to finally see his name on a traveling wall when it came to Fairbanks, Alaska. I know how you felt, even as I write this I am over whelmed. After all these years I finally met "my man" and still wear proudly his bracelet. If any one has info on surviving family members I would like to give my bracelet to them.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Kathleen ConleyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
