I am working with the Beser Foundation to help locate the remains of MIAs from the various wars. We were in Wellsboro, PA last fall for a book signing. The local radio station was covering our event. During the day we appealled to the listeners to bring down any old photos or other documents that they or their relatives may have relating to the WWII or Korean wars. A lady brought in several photos one of which showed a soldier kneeling by a grave of a buddy. The crosses had names on them. After a quick check we discovered that all the names were on the WWII MIA list. The location of the cemetery was identified even though the markers were missing the remains of several WWII MIAs are coming home just because of this one photo. The bottom line is there is a lot of information out there that can be very helpful in this endeavor. As genealogists you may stumble on something really important to this effort. If anyone has or knows of any documents, photos, etc. relating to WWII or Korean war battles please get in contact with me off the forum. I would very much like to see or get copies of photos, documents, etc. especially if they can help identify the location of any MIAs. We do now want the original photos - just digital copies. As far as Hill 1700 goes, there are good records of the 185th infantry regiment but so far we have not been able to identify the GIs in the photo. I will post the URL for the temporary Beser Foundation web site in a few days. It is not up yet but under construction.
