POW/MIA Recognition Week in Hawai'i

The names of over 180 service men and women were read – these are the missing that have been identified since last year’s event – some as early as this week.

Across the country, local POW/MIA ceremonies are encouraged throughout POW/MIA Recognition Week, culminating with a countless number of events and the national ceremony in Washington, DC, on Recognition Day. Support for Americans missing and unaccounted-for in wartime, and their families, is deeply felt. America’s POW/MIAs can be honored and recognized, but not memorialized.
