Recently the news has reported that the remains of Captain Speicher were located in the deserts of Iraq. This lays to rest a controversy which has brewed since the first days of the last Gulf War. Is Captian Speicher dead or alive?
While I served in Iraq it was thought that the remains of Captain Speicher were beneath the roundabout at the entrance of Camp Speicher. However, those reports never proved to be valid.
It turns out his jet crashed into the desert and his remains were buried there.
Our hearts go out to the Speicher family. After many years of wondering they now know. They can bring their soldier home!
