MISSING PERSON LOCATION TECHNIQUE

The following information is a very simple
technique for finding missing children, adults, MIA's,
etc.. Please take it SERIOUSLY.

Make a 90-degree "Angle Wire" by bending an 18"
length of 1/8" iron welding rod at right angles at the
center and slipping it into a 7" length of 1/4" straight
copper tubing. Both ends of the rod should be pointed,
and the top end of the tube should be smooth and flat so
the wire can turn freely inside the tube.

Wrap the four fingers of your right hand around the
copper tube, and place the front of the thumb against
the side of the tube near the top so that the center of
the whorl of your thumb is pressed against the tube.
Stand on solid ground with your feet about one foot
apart, and hold the Angle Wire so the copper tube is
vertical, about 15 inches in front of your chest.

Should All Military Detainees Be Awarded The POW Medal?

TOPIC: Some Americans feel that any military person, while performing
assigned and legal military duties, who is arrested and involuntarily
detained by a foreign nation, excluding circumstances alleging
criminal violation of local law, should be eligible for Prisoner of
War status and be awarded the POW medal even if no state of military
hostility or conflict exists. Other Americans feel the traditional
status of a POW, those captured and detained during a state of war or
military conflict, should be strictly maintained.
