Butch Maisel, who co-curates a military history museum at The Boys' Latin School of Maryland in Baltimore, says he wants to return US military dog tags found in the Philippines to family members.
Haddock was just a tot when her lanky uncle joined the US Army and was shipped off to the Philippines. She doesn't remember much about that time -- except for the great sadness that followed when Charles E. "Pete" Cook Jr. was reported missing after Japanese forces took Corregidor, a tiny rock-strewn island in Manila Bay, during World War II.
"The only thing I can remember is my grandma being upset," Haddock said. It took many agonizing months for Cook's parents to learn he was presumed dead.
