Celebrating anniversary of returned hero

Retired Lt. Col. Richard “Gene” Smith stands next to a T-6 Talon aircraft before an incentive flight April 2007. Smith served in the Air Force for 22 years. Five of those years were spent in captivity in Hanoi, North Vietnam. Smith said that it was faith in God, his belief his country would not forsake him, and the knowledge his family was safe and being taken care of in the United States that helped him through those five years.
