POW MIA Flag
POW MIA Flag, Since WWI, more than 200,000 Americans have been listed as being Prisoners of War or Missing in Action. During the Vietnam War alone more than 2,500 Americans were captured and listed as Missing in Action, MIA. Shortly after the end of the war, an organization called the National League of Families was formed with the goal to remind the nation of those declared MIA. In 1971, wife of MIA soldier, Mrs. Michael Hoff, felt there should be a symbol to remind the nation of these soldiers and contacted a flag company to being the process. The resulting flag went into production so quickly the sketch was never refined, and the initial drawing in the POW/MIA Flag seen today.
