Veterans Week - Bringing the Boys Home - Missing in Action Research and Recovery
Paul Schwimmer
Paul Schwimmer is part of an archaeological team, History Flight, that is dedicated to finding the remains of missing WWII soldiers and bringing them home. He will lead an in-depth discussion about the ongoing efforts of private organizations (NGOs) that search for, and recover, many of the 83,000 missing soldiers, sailors, Marines, and Army Air Corps service men and women who gave their lives defending this country in World War II. He recently went to the South Pacific to search for the remains of Marines killed there during the battle of Tarawa. There they found the remains of many missing Marines including a Medal of Honor winner.
