Today, nearly 72,000 Americans who served in World War II are still unaccounted for.
The Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency, or the DPAA, has made it their mission to “provide the fullest possible accounting for our missing personnel to their families and the nation.”
Their teams search for, locate, identify, and bury missing personnel according to the wishes of their families.
