    DPAA conducts recovery mission in Italy

    From left, Tech. Sgt. Rhon Dawkins, Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) Short Term Individual augmentee (STIA) and Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) technician, and Tech. Sgt. Ben Leonard, DPAA STIA and EOD technician, screen soil during a recovery mission in Italy, June 23, 2023. Water screening stations are equipped with high-pressure hoses employed by team members to screen soil through wire mesh, all with the intent of finding potential human remains, life support equipment, or material evidence associated with missing service members. Dawkins and Leonard were part of a 26-member recovery team searching for possible human remains from World War II, of which there are approximately 72,000 service members unaccounted for.
