Many of you know the unit I am associated with. Of late, we have been increasingly seen on Nightline, 60 Min's, 60 Mins II, GMA and others.
Our mission is to provide the fullest accounting of Americans from all past conflicts.
Previously, there were two units that handled this mission...
JTF-FA (my previous posting) covered Southeast Asia (Vietnam War) including China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, and their respective off-shore waters.
CILHI focused on remains from the Korean War and earlier. 1 Oct 03 the two units merged under a single PACOM flag and formed JPAC. Our mission remains the same...only now it is one unit providing worldwide POW / MIA investigation and recovery.
Our new website is up...complete with press releases, some photos, repatriation information, etc...
If you are interested, please feel free to visit.
