Master Sgt. William Mitchell, 60 Civil Engineer Squadron, first sergeant, (middle) carries the Prisoner of War/Missing in Action Flag as he runs with a group of his fellow Travis Air Force Base First Sergeants during the annual POW/MIA Remembrance Run, Sept. 15, 2016. For the next 24 hours, airmen from the base will carry the United States and POW/MIA Flags or a set of batons around the track in 15-minute shifts ending on Friday afternoon. The POW/MIA baton holds a flash drive that contains all known names of all the accounted for POW/MIAs since WWI. At present, more than 83,000 Americans remain missing from WWII, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Cold War, and the Gulf Wars and other conflicts. (U.S. Air Force Photo by Heide Couch)
