This was the type of headlines Jacob Walden and other military service members were seeing 40 years ago today. Jacob was still in the States, but in just eight short weeks he would be in Vietnam and on June 30 would be shot down, and never return home.  Although there was and still is disagreement about the Vietnam War, the disagreement does not change the facts or sacrifice of those who served, nor does it change the sacrifices of those who’ve served during the Cold War Era and who’ve since been Forgotten.
Forgotten Soldiers: What Happened to Jacob Walden Cold War Mystery about Air Force Captain Jacob Walden shot down over Vietnam in 1970 and the untold story of why he never returned home. Forty years later Journalist Ted Pratt investigates what may be the sudden reappearance of Jacob Walden and follows the trail to find Jacob. Ted encounters Charlie Smith, a secretive and seasoned Operative who may have answers to the question about “What Happened to Jacob Walden,” and why Jake never returned home.

"Although this is a work of fiction, the story could very well have happened and none of us would have been the wiser.

Captain Jacob Walden, 24, had only been in Vietnam for a month when his plane is shot down in 1970... The author uses real events in his story such as the historic U.S. raid on the Son Tay prison camp to rescue seventy American prisoners - a location only 23 miles west of Hanoi, Jane Fonda's infamous trip to the Hanoi Hilton Prison in North Vietnam, and the fall of the Russian empire.

...To tell anymore would be a spoiler - you'll have to read this fine story on your own to see how it ends. Warning: you'll stay up late into the night reading because you won't be able to stop. Highly recommended! "
