    DPAA conducts recovery mission in Italy

    From left, U.S. Army Spc. Patrick Steinmetz, Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) Short Term Individual augmentee (STIA), and U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Colby Truss, DPAA STIA, fill buckets with soil during a recovery mission in Italy, June 23, 2023. Every inch of soil taken from a recovery site is screened for possible life support equipment or material evidence, then analyzed by a scientific recovery expert who determines relevancy to the case at hand. Steinmetz and Truss were part of a recovery team searching for possible human remains from World War II, of which there are approximately 72,000 service members unaccounted for.
