Pow/MIA Accounting: Volume II - J*p*a*c and the Politics of Human Skeletal Identification

By Paul M. Cole

This book, the second of a two-volume series entitled POW/MIA Accounting, summarizes the final four of the author's seven-year association with the U.S. government's program to account for military service members who went missing during America's historic conflicts. Based on hundreds of primary source documents including email and records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, this volume is an unprecedented description of the extent of political interference in the science of human skeletal identification. The narrative in Volume 2 derives from the author's four-year experience as a member of the Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command's (JPAC) Central Identification Laboratory located at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam on Oahu, Hawaii.
