(ABC 6 News) – The Heartland Gun Club & Range held a fundraiser Saturday to bring back the remains of a U.S. Soldier who never made it home.

The event was a partnership with the POW/MIA Freedom Riders Association, and ran from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.

It was all to raise money to bring home Sgt. Allen Richard Lloyd to his sister that lives in Stewartville.

Lloyd, who was from Minnesota, was lost in a battle with Vietnamese troops overseas in 1971.

The fundraiser was full of special events and one-of-a-kind auctions.
