U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Robert Hile, an explosive ordnance disposal team leader assigned to the 27th Special Operations Civil Engineering Squadron, stands for a photo at Cannon Air Force Base, New Mexico, June 14, 2024.

The DPAA is the Department of Defense organization charged with providing the fullest possible accounting for America’s missing personnel, both to their families and the nation.
