A variety of tools and techniques are used on recovery missions to assist excavations, from hatchets and axes for the removal of tree roots, to hoes and rakes to break up soil. There are currently 1,578 missing and unaccounted-for Americans from the Vietnam War, of which 288 are believed to be in Laos. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Cole Yardley)
