Resolving “Last Known Alive” Cases

• Of the original 196 individuals “Last Known Alive” in Vietnam (those who might have survived their loss incidents, but did not return), DoD has determined the fate of 162, with 34 still unresolved.

• Of the 162 whose fate has been determined, the remains of 48 have been located and identified.

• Cambodia, Vietnam, and U.S. technical experts met in Hanoi in November 2004 to discuss Last Known Alive cases along the Cambodia – Vietnam border. A meeting with Laos, Vietnam, and U.S. technical experts to discuss Last Known Alive cases along the Laos – Vietnam border took place in Vientiane in April.

RELEASE NO. #06-42 December 1, 2006JPAC TEAMS RETURN FROM LAOS AND CAMBODIA
HICKAM AFB, HAWAII – Five JPAC recovery teams and one investigation returned to Hawaii last week after conducting missions in Laos and Cambodia. Three recovery teams excavated sites in Savannakhet Province, Lao Peoples’ Democratic Republic, connected to three cases involving missing Americans from the Vietnam War. The teams obtained material evidence and possible human remains.
In the same province, an investigation team followed leads, interviewed witnesses and surveyed suspected loss locations relating to dozens of other cases. This was the 96th Joint Field Recovery conducted in Laos.
Two separate JPAC recovery teams excavated sites in the Kingdom of Cambodia linked to two cases involving missing Americans from the Vietnam War. The teams recovered material evidence during their missions. This was the 36th Joint Field Recovery in Cambodia.
JPAC Central Identification Laboratory scientists will now analyze all newly acquired material evidence and possible human remains in an effort to account for the missing Americans associated with the Laotian sites. Additionally, JPAC intelligence analysts will scrutinize the information obtained by the investigation team to schedule future recoveries and identifications.
Both JFAs were 33 days in duration.

News Release
IMMEDIATE RELEASE No. 1294-06
December 19, 2006
-----------------------------------
Soldiers Missing In Action From Vietnam War are Identified
The Department of Defense POW/Missing Personnel Office (DPMO) announced today that the remains of three U.S. servicemen, missing in action from the Vietnam War, have been identified and returned to their families for burial with full military honors.
They are Capt. Herbert C. Crosby, of Donalsonville, Ga.; Sgt. 1st Class Wayne C. Allen, of Tewksbury, Mass.; and Sgt. 1st Class Francis G. Graziosi, of Rochester, N.Y.; all U.S. Army. Burial dates and locations are being set by their families.
Representatives from the Army met with the next-of-kin of these men to explain the recovery and identification process, and to coordinate interment with military honors on behalf of the Secretary of the Army.
On Jan. 10, 1970, these men were returning to their base at Chu Lai, South Vietnam aboard a UH-1C Huey helicopter. Due to bad weather, their helicopter went down over Quang Nam Province. A search was initiated for the crew, but no sign of the helicopter or crew was spotted.
In 1989, the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (S.R.V.) gave to U.S. specialists 25 boxes containing the remains of the U.S. servicemen related to this incident. Later that year, additional remains and Crosby's identification tag were obtained from a Vietnamese refugee.
Between 1993 and 1999, joint U.S./S.R.V. teams, led by the Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command (JPAC), conducted three investigations in Ho Chi Minh City and two investigations in Quang Nam-Da Nang Province (formerly Quang Nam Province). A Vietnamese informant in Ho Chi Minh City told the team he knew where the remains of as many as nine American servicemen were buried. He agreed to lead the team to the burial site. In 1994, the team excavated the site and recovered a metal box and several bags containing human remains, including those of these three soldiers. Among other forensic identification tools and circumstantial evidence, scientists from JPAC and the Armed Forces DNA Identification Laboratory also used mitochondrial DNA and dental comparisons in the identification of the remains.
