HARTFORD, Conn. - The search is beginning for the remains of an Army captain from Waterford who was shot down over Vietnam in 1972.

A U.S. military team is excavating a ridge west of Vietnam's Hue City to find the remains of Arnold "Dusty" Holm. U.S. Rep. Joe Courtney, D-Conn., confirmed the start of the work.

Holm, who was a 28-year-old Army captain at the time, and two passengers are believed to have died in a downed helicopter on June 11, 1972.

The search team, coordinated by the Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command, is set to continue through July 25. It will use techniques similar to an archaeological dig.



Work two years ago found the site where Holm's scout helicopter was believed to have crashed.
