Vietnam remains could be missing brother

36 years after a soldier went missing during Vietnam, his sister in northwest Georgia may have some answers about what happened to him. The United States military recently called Christine Jones of Dalton to say scientists have likely identified the remains of Maj. Bobby M. Jones. His F4 jet disappeared in November of 1972 near Danang in South Vietnam. In June, a forensic anthropologist reportedly found a military identification marker linked to Jones.
