The database is organized by military branch and the first letter of the servicemember’s last name. The data lists full name, service number, branch of service, rank and date of loss. If you want to search the entire dataset at once look at my search query for guidance. Keep in mind that searching via the search engine returns exact matches only. You can also use the Google site search to get a list of all WWII MIAs reported missing on a particular date.

    View similar data for the Vietnam War (select the complete list link to view all names), Desert Storm, the “Cold War”, Korean War deceased captives and the Korean War.

S.military personnel and other federal government records, for a list of the personal information available without an authorization of active duty and retired military. The Servicemembers’ Civil Relief Act site returns instant verification of current active military status but the fields are more restrictive than those offered in a mailed FOIA request.

    Limited personal employment information – position titles and occupational series, grades, annual salary rates, duty stations, and position descriptions for the present and the past – is also available on civilians who have worked for the military.

    The U.S. National Archives Web site indexes the Archives’ holdings and has searchable databases of personal information on current and former military personnel. Browse the list of all subject databases by category. Here are a few of the military databases.
