When Jan Withers' first husband, a U.S. Air Force pilot, died in a plane crash, the man in a military uniform who came to her door nearly refused to tell her the news outright.
"All he would say is, 'he's missing.' I wouldn't listen, and kept asking him what happened. He just wouldn't say he died," recalled Withers. "I wouldn't even sit down with him because I just wanted to find out so badly what happened, every single detail. Finally I got him to say that it was his personal opinion that my husband 'did not make it,' but that he couldn't say anything official until there was an investigation."
