Local workers use an excavator to clear soil buildup

Local workers use an excavator to clear soil buildup caused by wet-screening operations during a Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) recovery mission in Myanmar, Feb. 24, 2020. DPAA conducts world wide joint field activities with various foreign governments to recover the remains of missing Americans. Throughout these countries, field teams continue to investigate crash and burial sites, as well as interview locals to gain additional knowledge. DPAA’s mission is to provide the fullest possible accounting of our missing personnel to their families and the nation. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Seth Coulter)
