Air Force Capt. Mark A. Peterson never came home from Vietnam.
Surely, he died there. But nobody was returned in a flag-draped coffin. Not even so much as a tooth or hair has been found. Nothing to prove the young pilot from North Canton was killed after he d parachuted from his aircraft, in Quang Tri Province, South Vietnam on Jan. 27, 1973.
On this Memorial Day, Peterson remains one of the Vietnam War s 1,584 U.S. service members still unaccounted for in Vietnam, Laos or Cambodia. Officially, he is missing in action, though presumed dead.
Gone, but not forgotten.
At first, Peterson s parents kept his memory alive. That is, until his dad, Mauritz Pete Peterson died in 1991; his mom, Rosalie, followed in 2002. Then, the duty fell squarely in the lap of his sister, Tanalynne (Peterson) Sickafoose, who passed away at the age of 61 in 2006.
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has secured a $116m (€95.1m) green loan to build and operate three 48MW wind farms, totaling 144 MW, in Quang Tri Province, Vietnam.
The loan is with Lien Lap Wind Power Joint Stock Company (Lien Lap), Phong Huy Wind Power Joint Stock Company (Phong Huy), and Phong Nguyen Wind Power Joint Stock Company (Phong Nguyen) .
The project is expected to increase Vietnam’s wind power capacity by 30%, helping the country meet rapidly growing demand for energy.
Lien Lap, Phong Huy, and Phong Nguyen are owned by Power Construction Joint Stock Company No.1 (PCC1) and RENOVA.
The loan forms part of a $173m green loan project financing package arranged and syndicated by ADB as mandated lead arranger and bookrunner.
