Summary

On June 6, 2014, the Missing In America Project in cooperation with the American Legion Post 71 of North Augusta, S.C. and Post 193 of Chapin, S.C., conducted a full military honors funeral for seven previously unclaimed Veterans at the Fort Jackson National Cemetery in Columbia, S.C. Those being interred had collectively served the nation for more than 23 years. Six were Army and one was Navy having served in WWII, Vietnam and/or the Cold War. Little more is known about the Veterans other than the fact that they served honorably. Here, a Navy Honor Guard presents the urn of Seaman Eric Gerhart along with a U.S. flag.

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
