Manfred Klein, a contractor with the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency, uses a water pump to drain water from a flooded grave prior to exhuming at the Florence American Cemetery, Via Cassia, Italy, June 16, 2026. Natural factors, such as water and varying temperatures can impact grave sites and cause water build up. Careful consideration is taken during disinterments to exhume all remains from the site and prevent damage to the grave and surrounding sites. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Shay Stuart)
