Did you know there are still 60 Hoosiers declared Missing from the Vietnam War and 112 from the Korean War? The families of those military members have no definitive answers. Rolling Thunder is committed to publicize the POW/MIA issue.

As part of our 2012 Signs of Support Grant Program, Rolling Thunder Indiana Chapter 6 has received a matching grant to go towards banners and yard signs to promote one of their annual events. Walter Valiant, presented the Signs of Support Recipient Plaque to Rolling Thunder Indiana Chapter 6 this past Saturday during their monthly meeting.

The function of Rolling Thunder Indiana Chapter 6 is to bring awareness to the Southwestern Indiana community about prisoners of war and those missing in action. The non-profit organization holds various fundraisers and events throughout the year as reminders of those still missing Americans.

Last year they were responsible for bringing the traveling Vietnam Wall to Evansville. This portable replica of the Vietnam Memorial is dubbed ‘The Wall That Heals’ and has been the source of comfort for those unable to visit the Vietnam Memorial in Washington D.C. See more about that event on WFIE’s website.
