"2003, Let's set them FREE!"

Our scheduled guests on POW/MIA Radio for Sunday, February 9, 2003 are:

3:00pm Mtn - News and Views. An hour of the latest POW/MIA and veterans issues. Our special guest will be Col. Bud Day, USAF (ret). Col. Day, a former Vietnam POW who was held for 67 months, is presently spearheading the effort in support of military retiree health care. His class-action lawsuit seeks to reverse our government's betrayal of its contract with veterans to provide lifetime medical care. A rally before the next Supreme Court decision will be held on Wednesday, February 12, at the US Capitol. For more information, please visit http://www.classact-lawsuit.com .

4:00pm Mtn - Diane Van Renselaar and Jeanie Hasenback. John Backes will host this program on two different but equally compelling cases in POW/MIA annals. Lt. Larry Jack Van Renselaar, USN, went missing September 30, 1968 on a night reconnaisance mission near Vinh, North Vietnam. His status as Catagory 1, indicating confirmed enemy knowledge, and other facts, were never communicated to his wife Diane. Van Renselaar's remains were "discovered" in 1989. SSgt Paul Hasenback, US Army, disappeared on a sampan on April 21, 1967 after completing his patrol mission. Intelligence information, including a "Brightlight" report, indicated the possibility that Hasenback may have been one of several Americans sighted alive shortly after their disappearance. Most recent investigations, based on questionable sources, say that SSgt Hasenback and three others were ambushed and their bodies thrown in the river. His sister, Jeanie is still fighting for the truth.

5:00pm Mtn - Ben Torrey. Ben is the US Director, International Committee for the Rescue of KAL 007 Survivors, Inc. KAL 007, was a Korean Air Lines 747 that was shot down September 1, 1983, near Sakhalin, USSR, by Soviet fighter aircraft. It was originally reported that all passengers and crewmembers were lost. However, later findings including radar analysis, communications traffic and eye witness reports tell a completely different story, including the survival of occupants. Did the plane indeed stray into Russian territory? Why was an obvious civilian plane shot down? Was a VIP passenger aboard KAL 007 targeted for assassination? Where did they "bury" the survivors? New information relating to this incident is posted on their web site. Please visit http://www.rescue007.org for the latest.

Please listen to POW/MIA Radio every Sunday on the American Freedom Network, http://www.americanewsnet.com . We also broadcast on satellite and locally on KHNC-AM, 1360khz, Johnstown, Colorado.
