Ring is returned

Phyllis Hivner places the original wedding band on the left ring finger of retired Col. James Hivner Nov. 11, 2009, at the Cavanaugh Flight Museum in Addison, Texas. It was the first time the colonel had seen, or worn, the ring since Oct. 5, 1965, when he was shot down and captured in North Vietnam and the ring was taken. The colonel's ring was found recently and eventually passed to retired Navy Cmdr. Rick Tolley who searched for its owner until he found Colonel Hivner. (U.S. Air Force photo/LouAnne Sledge)
