Wedding Ring Returned to Hill AFB Widow
Air Force Captain George Bryan Houghton was killed in June of 2009 during a night training mission in his F-16. An article from the Associated Press, as distributed by FoxNews, recounts the story of his widow’s liaison officer (the officer who becomes the family’s help in any way necessary) going an extra mile to help her obtain closure.
The article reports that Houghton’s widow, Josie, only asked for the investigators to return one thing to her: his wedding band. Unfortunately, it was not recovered in the initial crash investigation. The liaison, Maj. Robert Ungerman, took it upon himself to correct that failing, and a moving story results.
