Missing in America


Thanks to my friend, Ken Crawford and the Pharaohs Street Rodders, I was introduced to the Missing in America Project (MIAP). It is a nation wide search for veterans who have died, after their military service, with no one to claim them for burial. Their remains have been sitting on a shelf in some storage room, some for decades, without receiving their proper final honor. Veterans are assured a place in one of our National cemeteries. MIAP representatives are searching these storerooms for Veterans, documenting their service records through cooperation with the Veteran's Administration and then arranging a proper military burial.
Funds are raised for this project by individual contributions, fund raising groups, service donations and volunteer activities. I am very proud to a small part in their mission by providing photo and video documentation for the promotion of that mission.
