Burial service for soldiers missing from Vietnam War in Section 60 of Arlington National Cemetery

Three soldiers from the 3d U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) hold American flags during a graveside service in Section 60 of Arlington National Cemetery, June 17, 2015, in Arlington, Va. Four soldiers, U.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer 3 James L. Phipps, Chief Warrant Officer 3 Rainer S. Ramos, Staff Sgt. Warren Newton and Spc. Fred J. Secrist, had gone missing during the Vietnam War and were buried as a group in a single casket. According to the Department of Defense, “On Jan. 9, 1968, the crew was on a mission over Quang Tin Province (now part of Quang Nam Province), South Vietnam, when the Huey was struck by ground fire, causing it to crash and explode in a North Vietnamese bunker and trench system. The crew was declared missing in action. On Jan. 20, 1968, a U.S. led team recovered the body of Secrist and he was returned to his family for burial.” (U.S. Army photo by Rachel Larue/released)
