A headstone marks the site of an unknown service member who died during the West Loch disaster at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, Honolulu, Hawaii, Jan. 6, 2025. Seven individuals were disinterred as part of the West Loch Project: an ongoing effort by DPAA to disinter, transport, and identify service members who died in the West Loch disaster during World War II. The 1944 disaster killed or wounded 132 confirmed service members while they were loading ammunition and fuel onto ships at the West Loch peninsula of Pearl Harbor. This year marked the 80th anniversary of the disaster. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Kathy Duran)
