On December 24 the crew honored Duane Hodges at a memorial service in the 121st Evac. chapel. After the service they boarded two US Air Force Starlifter C-141 aircraft for the flight to the United States.
During a refueling stop at 3:00 A. M. on Midway Island, "USA soil - we are home." The crew was greeted by Admiral John Hyland, CINCPACFLT, as heroes. All were treated to a meal of burgers and french fries in the Midway mess hall.
THANK YOU MIDWAY, PERFECT!
