Retired Army Major Bob Johnson has made it his mission to ensure that Henderson County's Missing in Action servicemembers from World War II are never lost to time. In this powerful episode, we talk about VFW Post 5206’s efforts to honor and locate 13 local heroes still unaccounted for, including Marine Corps Private Luther Rhodes, who vanished in 1942 at Guadalcanal in the South Pacific. From deep historical research, to working with Senator Budd's office and the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency, Bob brings the past into the present with purpose and heart. A conversation about sacrifice, remembrance, and a community that refuses to forget.
