The U.S. Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command hosted an Arrival Ceremony Friday, Dec. 9 to honor fallen U.S. personnel whose identities remain unknown. An honor detail made up of joint military members will escorted six flag-draped transfer cases from a U.S. military plane to JPAC's Central Identification Laboratory for analyses. The remains receiving full military honors represent losses associated with World War II and the Vietnam War. The first five transfer cases represent individuals unaccounted-for from World War II and were recovered from the United Kingdom, Canada, the Republic of Vanuatu, the Federal Republic of Germany, and the Independent State of Papua New Guinea. The final transfer case was recovered from the Lao People's Democratic Republic and represents Vietnam War losses. Once the transfer cases arrive at JPAC's laboratory, the process of forensically identifying the individuals will begin. If and when identifications are established, the names will be announced following next-of-kin notification.

Dec 15, 2011 - I would just like to say thank you to all who go over and search for our fallen soldiers. Never give up the search. I also had the pleasure of being stationed with SFC Shane Beckham who is a member of the crews going over. Big thanks to him, his wife and the rest of you!
