Among the numerous analyses of those missing in action in Southeast Asia, this study is the first to concentrate on the process whereby the US military tried to resolve each case. Much of the continuing controversy ignores or refuses to accept the fact that the US Government, through the Joint Casualty Resolution Center and other mechanisms, has made a thorough, sustained, good faith effort to determine the fate of every serviceman declared missing in action in that conflict. The author, who spent more than 15 years in Southeast Asia taking part in those endeavors, tells the story of this unique effort from the point of view of an informed insider. A member of the MIA search team from the early 1970s through the late 1980s, Paul Mather is well qualified to relate the history of this effort. He covers a wide range of topics, from field work at crash sites and personal interchanges with Vietnamese, Cambodian, Lao, and Thai officials, through the various international accords that governed the activities of the US investigatory teams. Although political changes in the United States alternately facilitated or hampered search efforts, the attempt to resolve every case never ceased. Colonel Mather faithfully records the efforts of individuals and organizations that played major roles in this drama: congressional committees; the National League of Families; private citizens who made sincere efforts to help; senior government officials like General John Vessey, who headed a special full-accounting commission; military agencies such as the Joint Casualty Resolution Center and the Army's Central Identification Laboratory; scoundrels and swindlers who exploited the tragedy for personal gain; and self-styled Rambos who acted on their own.

The matter of American servicemen missing in action (MIA) in Southeast Asia is a poignant and tragic issue resulting from the United States involvement in the Vietnam War. The problem of an adequate MIA accounting remains a principal point of contention between this country and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, as well as a discordant issue separating the United States Government and a small but determined group of its citizens - some of the MIA families. One of the goals of the National Defense University is to provide an opportunity for our students and faculty to contribute to the public dialogue on a broad range of national security issues. Captain Clarke prepared this carefully researched study while a resident student at The National War College during the 1977-78 academic year, and we are pleased to make it available through publication for a wider audience. The author describes the process of determination of MIA status, the political and psychological considerations that impacted on that process, and the development of the MIA question as an example of the intersection of domestic and international considerations impacting on policy. He discusses the manner in which the Vietnamese have attempted to employ this contentious issue for their own purposes, and analyzes the differing approaches taken by Presidents Nixon, Ford, and Carter toward resolving the problem. By explaining how this painful impasse evolved, Captain Clarke's study not only contributes to public understanding of a sensitive and complex issue but also assists future policymakers in avoiding a repetition of this or similar predicaments.
