I was originally from Rockford, graduated from Guilford in '64 - first graduating class. I have searched for Michael for a long time, hoping he was a returnee. Came across the bracelet the other day & would love to send it to him to know someone was thinking about him all the time he was in Vietnam. I was an Eastern Air Lines flight attendant, based in Miami, for 7 years, 1967 - 1974 & wore the bracelet on every flight. Hope you can help me find out where to send the bracelet - it would mean a lot to me to give it to him and I'm sure he'd like to have it, not as a reminder of the POW camp, but of the people at "home" who were thinking of him and praying for him during the 1,846 days he spent there. Thank you! Sincerely, Faith Wendt Koch, Spring Hill, FL Gentlemen: Since 1968, I have had and worn a POW bracelet for Spec. 5 Michael Lenker, 2-8-68.
