ADVANCE FOR WEEKEND USE JUNE 4, 2016 AND THEREAFTER - In this May 28, 2016 photo, Marines from the Combat Logistics Battalion 453 escort Elmer Mathies Jr. from First United Methodist Church of Hereford to West Park Cemetery in Hereford, Texas. For years, for decades, the young Marine from Hereford whom his buddies called “Rabbit” was called something else, something that put a silent knot in the stomachs of his family and those he fought with on foreign soil. The War Department tersely described Mathies Jr. as “unrecoverable.” (Sean Steffen/The Amarillo Globe News via AP) MANDATORY CREDIT
