On Oct. 7, 1967, Hodges was leading a strike
mission near Hanoi, North Vietnam when his A-4E Skyhawk was struck by an enemy
surface-to-air missile. His wingman reported receiving a radio transmission from the
lieutenant that his engine had flamed out. As the wingman watched, Hodges' burning
aircraft rolled to the right, entered a steep dive, and crashed. No parachute was sighted
and no emergency beeper signals were heard. Because of enemy control of the area, there
was no search and rescue mission mounted.
Acting on information obtained from Vietnamese wartime documents, a joint U.S./Vietnamese
team interviewed villagers in July 1995 who claimed to have visited the site shortly after
the crash and buried the pilot. But the crash crater had been filled with dirt to allow
farming, so the team found no evidence of a crash. But the following April, another team
mounted an excavation at the site where they did recover remains, a wristwatch fragment,
pilot-related items and aircraft wreckage. Later, in September 1996, a third team
continued the excavation and found additional remains among the wreckage.
