The Defense Department’s POW/Missing Personnel Office has just announced that a team of five Japanese and three Americans has gone to Attu Island, Alaska, for a four-day mission—searching for the remains of Japanese soldiers missing in action from World War II. Washington and Tokyo will make a decision about follow-on excavations after evaluating the team’s findings. After World War II, US forces found 235 sets of Japanese remains on Attu.
The Space Force should take bold, decisive steps—and soon—to develop the capabilities and architecture needed to support more flexible, dynamic operations in orbit and counter Chinese aggression and technological progress, according to a new report from AFA’s Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies.
