Notes from The Virtual WallTwo men were lost when an O-1G Birddog (tail #51-5059) light observation aircraft went down in bad weather on 09 January 1969:
An immediate search was impractical due to weather and nightfall, but airborne searches began the following morning and continued for several days. The wreckage was not located, nor was contact made with either of the two men. When the search effort was terminated both Byrd and O'Brien were classed as Missing in Action. The Secretary of the Army eventually approved Presumptive Findings of Death for both men, Byrd on 11 January 1974 and O'Brien on 07 March 1979. Their remains have not been repatriated. |
