The "Grade" and "Rank" fields reflect the individual's pay grade and military rank as reflected by the military service; promotions awarded subsequent to the date of loss are appropriately reflected. - The "Date of Death" field indicates the individual's date of death as determined by the individual Service Secretary. In the case of some individuals, this date was established by a Presumptive Finding Of Death (PFOD). - The "Returned Date" field is the date the individual's remains were returned to the United States control. This date will be reflected only after a positive identification has been made. - The "Status" field reflects the current classification of the individual as determined by the military branch of service. (KIA - Killed in Action; MIA - Missing in Action; POW - Prisoner of War; NBD - Non-Battle Death). This list of Korean War missing personnel was prepared by the Defense Prisoner of War/Missing Personnel Office (DPMO). Please visit our web site at http://www.dtic.mil/dpmo for updates to this list and other official missing personnel data lists. Report Prepared: 10/17/00 The Army has some unidentified remains of service members from North Korea. Since DNA data was unknown in the 1950s there was no profile on these personnel. The Army can now conduct DNA on the remains, but they have an incomplete database of DNA form close family members with which to compare. There are several on the list for your state and some may be from your county. Please look at the list and see if any from you county are annotated with needing DNA "Yes". If find one, look under DNA and see what relative is acceptable. Then find a relative in you area that meets this criterion and send their name, address or phone number to the following contact at Department of the Army. There is not guarantee that the missing service member from your county will be found, but thru DNA testing the Army can confirm or eliminate him as a name for the remains that they have. This is an important service that we can provide to our fellow citizens. We owe this much to our service members who made the ultimate sacrifice in the service of their country and in the name of freedom. Let us resolve to get all of these needed DNA for our state submitted. Steps to follow: 1. Look at the state List and find people from your county 2. copy and paste the service member name or jot it down on paper so that you use the same spelling when you go to the DNA database. 3. Go to DNA database and see if they need DNA, if not then the Army has what data they need. If they need DNA then you need to find a good DNA source. 4. Look under DNA on one of the pages and it will tell you what is acceptable. 5. Develop a list of siblings, offsprings etc with addresses/phone number and send them to the e-mail address or call them into the 1-800 number. 6. The Army has its own procedure for following up and getting the DNA samples.
