Hi All,
Justin and I have been working on a redesign/update for the MIA section of the website:
http://www.pacificwrecks.com/mia/index.html
I would be interested in hearing what people would like to see in such a section, so please post any ideas relating to this.
Also, I would love to hear from anyone whose relatives are still listed as missing in the Pacific (even if a page is already listed on the site). Air or ground war MIA cases would be greatly appreciated, so please forward any information and/or photos.

MIA section looks good, like always :)
How about adding subs that went missing? I have been researching both U.S. and Dutch subs that went missing and its really interesting research.
Also, I should be getting a photo scanned of WOJG Dawson Hutchison (MACR 6580)
I'm still researching 41-2464, last flight and two other MACR that sparked my intrest. MACR 3495 & 1544.
I have also been thinking about looking into 42-92062 (MACR 9016) last flight after I am down with the above..
