Includes bibliographical references (pages 405-410)."In the middle of a dark night off the coast of Vietnam on June 3, 1969, the USS Frank E.

Three brothers from a small town in Nebraska are gone, as is the son of a chief who barely survived. Only one body is ever found. The truth is confined to a footnote of the Vietnam War. Buried in obscurity even today, as the 74 names of those killed are not on the Vietnam Wall in Washington, D.C.
