DAVID HRDLICKA was a confirmed US Prisoner of War in Laos who never came home. Where is he today? You can bet the Vietnamese government knows. For insight into his case (representative of many other US POWs) read this interview with his wife, Carol. I'm still wearing your bracelet David. I pray you're still alive and will return home.

Update 1/8/2013: I wore David's bracelet until 2005 when I lost it at a technology training workshop in College Station, Texas. The web host for the previous link is now offline, so I've updated the link to an Internet Archive version. See this website maintained by his wife, Carol Hrdlicka, for more information about his case: www.powhrdlicka.com.
