We will never stop working to bring home those who gave everything for their country, nor cease in our pursuit of the fullest possible accounting for all who are missing. We are working to fulfill this promise by strengthening communication with the families of those service members missing or taken prisoner. And as Commander in Chief, I am committed to living up to this responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>The men and women of our Armed Forces face unthinkable conditions and bear the painful cost of war. Theirs is a debt we can never fully repay, though we will continue striving to remain worthy of their sacrifice. In honor of those who have not yet come home, and the families who struggle with the fear of unknown fate, we renew our fierce commitment to our patriots in uniform and pledge to do everything we can to bring those missing or held prisoner home. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>According to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dpaa.mil\/\">Defense POW\/MIA Accounting Agency<\/a> (DPAA) there are still more than 83,000 Americans missing; <\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?attachment_id=61892\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-61892\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Missing-Americans-300x173.jpg\" alt=\"Missing Americans\" width=\"300\" height=\"173\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-61892\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Missing-Americans-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Missing-Americans-500x289.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Missing-Americans.jpg 1039w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The President has designated today as National POW\/MIA Recognition Day.
