Re: POW-MIA Documentary
From: POW-MIA InterNetwork

"Sept. 6, at 8 p.m. (ET/PT) on the History Channel the show MIA: Solved will premier. It is a documentary that was completed on CILHI and two of the cases it worked. The show goes through the recovery missions for the Makin Raiders and the identification process that led to the Marines going home.
The other case highlighted is Thomas Hembree, WWII Pearl Harbor unknown identified in 2001 and buried last year. It explains the disinterment of his remains from the Punchbowl and the identification that followed. CILHI provided mission video footage and still pictures which made the cut. The CILHI interviews that made it include SFC Elzie, CPT Royle, Mr. Webb, Dr. Mann, CAPT Lewis, LTC Dunn, Dr. Belcher, Mr. Sturm, Ms. Harris, and Sgt Wade.
The show includes historical footage and interviews with family members from the above cases.
I encourage you all to watch it and pass the info on to your family and friends. If the History Channel gets ratings back of .06 or higher the show will become a series. JPAC will then work with them telling the story of service members we have recovered and identified for 13 or 26 episodes. Watch the History Channel website for changes to the airing time.
