Introducing: Unsolved Histories
The Unsolved Histories podcast team was pleased to get a phone call letting them know a U.S. senator not only listened to Season 1, but wanted to address a problem raised by their recounting of the tragic story of Flight 293. Military men and women who go missing, but not in action, are not remembered or memorialized and the families left without the support that is given to other MIA families. If passed, the Flight 293 Remembrance Act will change that. Host Feliks Banel researched this and other accidents involving service members who seemed to be forgotten by the government they served.
Here’s a clip from episode one of Unsolved Histories: What Happened to Flight 293?

And it wasn't even an intentional act of terror. It was an accidental one caused by the left-wing anti-war group: The Weathermen.
