Debbie Crain Anderson, Class of 71 and wife of Robert (Bob) Anderson, Class of 67 who both grew up in Fillmore and graduated from Fillmore High School presenting Captain Charlie Plumb with the POW bracelet she wore. “What an honor it was to get the opportunity to meet Captain Plumb. Such an honor. I got the bracelet when we were stationed on Guam when Robert was in the Marine Corps. We had just come from the Philippines. I got a bracelet. I wore it, never taking it off until one night we were watching the news. They were covering a flight of released POW’s. As each one walked off the plane their name was called. We got to see Captain Charles Plumb walk off that plane. It was as beautiful and heartwarming then as it was today to get to give him the bracelet that I had not taken off since the day I got it. Our men and women who have served and who serve now, those who suffered in POW camps, our MIA’s, those who have come home missing limbs, those who have returned home and those who did not make it home - they are the heroes. They have all paid the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you to them and their families. Let us NEVER FORGET.”
