Dear Mr. Surles:
Thank you for writing Governor Carper regarding POW/MIA Recognition Day. The Governor has asked me to let you know that he has, in fact, issued a proclamation honoring this day. Thank you again.
Sincerely,

POW/MIA Recognition Day
18 September 1998
12 September 1998
Governor Carper:
Why has Delaware not composed a proclamation in support of POW/MIA Recognition Day. Why is your state willing to forget? Do all people of Delaware feel like this?
It is important to remember our missing and unaccounted for. We must do everything possible to continue our efforts in finding and bringing them home. They went because their country asked them to go. Why is your state now forgetting them?
I encourage you to make public to the people a copy of the proclamation that supports POW/MIA Recognition Day. It is our responsibility as Americans to find and bring home those still missing. We owe it to the families that still wonder where their loved one is.
When will you add your state to the other 40 that are remembering?
POW/MIA Recognition Day is 18 September 1998. You officially have 3 days left. Why would you want to forget them?
Not Forgetting,
Mike Surles
Raleigh, North Carolina
