U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Stephen D. Tom, the commander of the Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command (JPAC), passes out coins for a job well done to members of the Pacific Command color guard and Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam Base honor guard at the conclusion of the National POW/MIA Recognition Day ceremony held at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific (Punchbowl) in Honolulu, Hawaii, Sept. 16. More than 200 past and present military members gathered with civilians to celebrate the day, which recognizes the sacrifices of those Americans who have been prisoners of war and to remind the nation of those individuals that are still missing. JPAC is responsible for the recovery of missing Americans from past conflicts and travels all around the world in search of those individuals in order to bring full accountability to their families and the American people.
