Robert C. Bowerman who was with USAF and aboard a C46 plane when it turned up missing in Korea. He was born on July 21 1921 and was Missing in Action on October 16, 1952. We understand that his remains were never recovered. He was said to be from Aberdeen (Grays Harbor County) Washington State. Kin need to be located and put in touch with the Missing Persons Office of the appropriate military authorities who generally keep the kin informed as to their progress in finding information on those that were missing. Anyone knowing of the names and addresses of the kin are asked to contact the undersigned. Kin could call USAF MSGT Fishback or his successor at 1 800 531 5501. When calling Msgt Fishback give him your name and address, the name of the casualty and your relationship to the casualty and other identifying information about the casualty and ask for information on the family update program and incident reports. Kin could also contact the undersigned. If Msgt. Fishback is called please let me know so that our search may be discontinued and we can continue our search for kin of other missing servicemen. Anyone interested in learning more about the MIAs and the need for DNA typing may visit the Korean War Project web site which is at www.koreanwar.org Date: Septemer 25 2001.
