\n

The remains of a U.S. airman<\/a> whose plane was shot down over Germany during World War II have been accounted for, the Defense POW\/MIA Accounting Agency announced Monday.<\/p>\n

U.S. Army Air Forces Staff Sgt. Edgar L. Mills, 25, of Tampa, Florida, was shot down July 18, 1944, during a bombing raid on enemy aircraft and air defense installations around Memmingen, Germany, the agency said in a news release.<\/p>\n

The pilot of the B-17G ordered the crew to bail out. Six crew members parachuted to safety, while five others, including Mills, were believed to have remained on board, the news release said.<\/p>\n

Mills’ body was not recovered at the time, and Germany never reported him as a prisoner of war<\/a>, the agency said.<\/p>\n

In 1946, the American Graves Registration Command was tasked with recovering missing Americans in Europe. Investigators searched the crash site<\/a> in Germany and discovered two other sets of remains.<\/p>\n

LATE QUEEN ELIZABETH II ASKED GERMANY FOR 2 EXPENSIVE HORSES WHEN SHE VISITED THE COUNTRY IN 1978<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The War Department declared Mills dead on July 26, 1951.<\/p>\n

In 2012, an investigation of a crash site near Kimratshofen, Germany eventually led to a mission that recovered possible human remains in 2018.<\/p>\n

A team from the University of New Orleans<\/a> continued work at the Kimratshofen site and transferred recovered material to a lab at Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska.<\/p>\n

There, scientists used dental records, mitochondrial DNA and anthropological analysis to identify Mills.<\/p>\n

He was officially listed as accounted for on Feb. 13.<\/p>\n

Mills’ name is recorded on the Walls of the Missing at the Epinal American Cemetery in Epinal, France. A rosette will now be placed next to his name to indicate he has been accounted for.<\/p>\n

Mills will be buried in Arlington National Cemetery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
