MIA returns home

Members of an Air Force Academy Cadet Honor Guard stand Tuesday, April 14, in the Roman Catholic chapel as they watch on a video screen the funeral for a 1967 Air Force Academy graduate taking place in the adjacent Jewish chapel. Capt. Richard D. Chorlins was shot down during a mission over Laos in 1970. His remains were returned in 2003 but it took another decade for DNA testing to positively identify the remains. He was laid to rest Tuesday at the Air Force Academy cemetery.
