Clarksville, Tenn. Alice Faye (Jones) Jefferson was last seen at Fort Campbell nearly 40 years ago, but an effort led by her now-grown children has the U.S. Army's Criminal Investigation Command (CID) reopening an investigation into her disappearance and asking for help from the public.

When she disappeared in July 1975, Jefferson, believed to be 21 years old at the time, was an Army spouse living on post with her two children and her soldier husband, a sergeant (E-5) assigned to B Troop, 2nd Squadron, 17th Cavalry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division.

Her husband was assigned to Fort Campbell from March 1973 until July 1975. Jefferson's children, six and seven years old at the time, resided with their parents during most of the period and attended the post elementary school.

With the assistance of a private investigator, Jefferson's children contacted CID agents in 2013, reporting their mother's disappearance and requesting an investigation.

According to CID, Jefferson's family described her as being approximately 5-feet,1-inch tall, about 100-115 pounds with black hair and brown eyes. She occasionally wore wigs, had pierced ears and possibly an open-faced gold crown on a front tooth and two extracted teeth.
