Navy Information Operations Command, Maryland, holds a commemoration ceremony to pay tribute to the 10 Sailors who lost their lives when their plane crash landed in the South China Sea on its way to South Vietnam, Dec. 12, 1971. Due to the unknown circumstances of the crash and the fact that no bodies were ever recovered, NIOC members designed this ceremony to give the families a sense of closure and to remind them that the sacrifices they've made have not been forgotten.
