Chair of Honor: Bob Watkins, commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 51 in Spokane, pauses with his thoughts Thursday after the unveiling of the POW/MIA Chair of Honor near the veterans display in the concourse area at Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena. The chair, which will remain perpetually empty, serves as a reminder of the nearly 92,000 American soldiers serving their country who have gone missing or become prisoners of war. “This really means a lot. We have no idea what those guys have gone through,” Watkins said. (Dan Pelle)
