Finding Her Dad

Colleen Shine’s dad, Lt. Col. Anthony Shine disappeared during a flight over Vietnam in December of 1972. Colleen was eight years old. Her family never knew what happened to him. The search for her Dad eventually ended and he was listed as missing in action. Much later, in 1995, Colleen discovered something in the jungles of Vietnam.
