Mission Study Group Missing Soldier
The mission of Study Group Missing Soldiers is to search and find missing World War II soldiers. It’s main focus is World War II unaccounted ground losses within Benelux and Germany.
The Study Group, former Stichting Missing In Action (MIA), is a Dutch organization. Most obvious to investigate are the Ardennes (Belgium), Huertgenwald (Germany) and Arnhem (The Netherlands) areas. This due to the fact that the group operates from The Netherlands.
They will act on requests for help which in most cases are issued by the family of a missing soldier. In some cases a request comes for government agencies or because of metal detector findings. Any request for help will be considered, as long as it fits our mission: Search and find missing World War II ground losses within the Benelux and Germany.
By investigation and co-operation with like-minded organizations we try to gather useable clues which could lead to a recovery and/or identification. ‘Friend’ or ‘enemy’ is in all cases irrelevant. We believe that no one decides to enter a battlefield knowing returning home will never occur. As a result we will attempt to find the missing soldiers. Whether they are English, Dutch, American or German…
