SUMMARY:  Rebecca Rusch has spent most of her life wondering what happened to the father who left for Vietnam and never came back.  As a tribute to him and closure for her family, Rusch rode nearly 1,200 miles along the Ho Chi Minh Trail to visit the site where her dad's plane was shot down in Laos in 1972.  But her journey was just the beginning.  Special correspondent Mike Cerre reports.
