Members of the 55th Wing Honor Guard pay tribute to the armed forces at the prisoner of war / missing in action table during a POW/MIA remembrance luncheon at the Patriot Club, Offutt Air Force Base, Neb., Sept. 21. As part of the ceremony, a table is set up with symbolic items in remembrance and to honor all former American POWs, service members and civilians still unaccounted for, and their families. These items include a slice of lemon to represent the bitter fate of prisoners of war or those missing in action, a pinch of salt to represent the tears shed by the ones missing or captured and their family and an inverted glass showing the inability of those listed as POW/MIA to share in the toast for the evening.
