Today’s Mailbag comes from Rory Flynn and Mike Luehring with an import message!

The mission is accelerating as Tours of Duty and Mike Luehring prepare to return to Cambodia. Every hour matters. Conditions in the area tied to my brother Sean’s disappearance are changing, and without swift action, we could lose access to ground that may finally hold answers.

Moments like this don’t wait.

Access shifts, people move on, and critical information can vanish. Tours of Duty is ready—but reaching the field requires immediate support for travel, local teams, and equipment.

Please donate today. Stand with us. Be part of this mission—and help bring us closer to bringing Sean home.

Feed the Veteran Search Team Departing in Just Weeks

The team leaves in a matter of weeks. They’re loaded, ready — yet we still need $4,450 to feed them.
$25 = one veterans’ meals for a full day of searching.

These aren’t paid guides or tourists. They’re veterans and Gold Star Family members returning to the jungles of Southeast Asia — not to fight, but to find those who never made it home.

Every mile they walk, every drone flight they launch, every unsearched crash site risks being lost forever: witness memories fade, jungle canopy reclaims the ground.

For just $25, you can provide a full day of meals for a veteran actively searching for our missing.

Why This Matters:
• $25 = one veteran fed for one day
• $100 = drone flights over a search grid
• $500 = mission-critical recovery tools

Your gift now makes it possible for them to go and stay until the job is done.

When you give, you are there in the field with them, providing the fuel they need to continue the search for our 81,000 missing servicemembers.

You are not just buying a meal. You are helping keep America’s promise: no one left behind.

Buy a meal. Fuel the mission. Bring them home.

Funds raised for a specific mission will support that mission whenever possible; remaining funds may be used to advance Tours of Duty’s overall POW/MIA recovery mission.

Journalist. Warrior. Hero. Still missing.

(1952-2025)

    “I was never afraid.”

So sad to report the passing of  TRULY… one of “The Sons of Errol Flynn”.

Independent filmmaker, passionate patriot, and one who lived, breathed, and embodied the VERY spirit of that man from Hobart- not to mention party-giver EXTRAORDINAIRE along with the EQUAL effort from his lovely wife, Louise.

A monumental task this was, literally- a party of the CENTURY… all executed with grace, aplomb, and ease.

In tribute to you, Jack, I offer up these words… to one of the ALL TIME GREAT “Mulholland Drive Boys”- an “Olympiad” par excellence.

(Epilogue to The Man In The Iron Mask (1929))

“How can they die these bright ones? How may such energy, once released, be prisoned by earth, or stone, or grave. We die as we lived, say they, with life, and with life, how can there be death? Only remember us, only open a little book- and we shall always be with you- to ride a fine horse, or to cross a sharp blade, or carouse with a barrel or dally with a maid- come one come all.

And so passed a brave and glorious man… in honor. Only think and we live again; we live forever. For with us, now as ever, it’s one for all and all for one. And thus it was in France of old, in fiery days when hearts beat high, when blood was young and hate was bold and sword crossed sword to do or die- for love and honor glory then, when life was life and men were men.”
