U.S. Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Tyler Nilsson, an Explosives Ordnance Disposal technician augmented to a small but specialized Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command recovery team, takes the GPS coordinates of the pit he has designated as the unexploded ordnance pit. Nilsson, permanently stationed at EOD Mobile Unit 3, Naval Amphibious Base, Coronado, Calif., is augmenting JPAC for a 35-day mission to search for and possibly identify, the remains of seven airmen still unaccounted for from the Vietnam war.
