POW/MIA This index gives the most recent status for men NOT memorialized on the VirtualWall.org site who were, at one time, listed as Missing in Action. Click on a name to go to the person's memorial page.

The table lists the Incident Date, which is the actual date of loss, and the Casualty Date, which is the date that the Service branch determined that the individual had died. For those men who have returned, the dates that their remains were repatriated and identified are shown. In addition, the "How Lost" column gives the vehicle involved or type of loss, and the "Status" line gives the DoD POW/MIA Office's most recent status for the individual. When available, a link to the POW Network biography page is provided.
