'Some kind of recognition': Maine monument honors Lansing soldier


View Comments
HASLETT – On March 16, 1962, 93 U.S. Army soldiers and 11 crew members aboard Flying Tiger Line Flight 739 went missing over the Pacific Ocean during the early years of the Vietnam War.
What happened to Flight 739 and its exact mission are still unknown and that uncertainty has barred the men from recognition on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C.
But 59 years after Flight 739 disappeared, a granite monument erected on balsam fir tip land in Columbia Falls, Maine, gave them overdue recognition.
Sgt. Melvin Lewis Hatt, an Army Ranger from Lansing, was among the soldiers on the flight. His daughter, Donna Ellis Cornell, drove from Haslett to Columbia Falls at the invitation of Wreaths Across America for the May 15 unveiling. ....

New monument honors members of missing flight
COLUMBIA FALLS On a sunny Saturday, under a bright blue sky, a crowd that included families, military members and veterans gathered at Worcester Wreath Co.’s balsam tip land to honor their fallen, specifically those from Flying Tiger Line Flight 739.
The plane, destined for Vietnam on a secret mission, mysteriously disappeared after taking off March 16, 1962. On board were 93 U.S. Army members, 11 crew members and three South Vietnamese soldiers who were never heard from again. 
Because of the circumstances of the mission, including the fact that it occurred outside a combat zone, the names of those on board were never added to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., explained Sean Sullivan, a spokesman for Wreaths Across America (WAA). ....
