Subject:  Where Are They Now? (SSG William B. Hunt)
 
Dear - ,
 
As a retired veteran and citizen in the state of Idaho I would like to know
what is being done to determine the fate of the following veteran who
remains unaccounted for:

Staff Sergeant William B. Hunt (Sandpoint, Idaho), U.S. Army

SSG Hunt was last seen wounded awaiting medevac at a landing zone northeast
of Soui Da, 10 miles from Dau Tieng on November 4, 1966.  No remains were
ever found although there was an intensive search of the area later on. 

Additional information and a detailed account of Staff Sergeant Hunt's
activities on November 4, 1966, prior to his disappearance, are available
at:

http://www.IdahoCares.net/Hunt.htm

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.

Information related to other Idaho citizen-veterans who remain unaccounted
for may be accessed at:
