Since that time. primarily due to the determination of the families and a nucleus of concerned citizens. the Vietnamese have repatriated the remains of 78 of these men. Almost 2.500 Americans are still unaccounted for. according to the National League of POW/MIA Families. and the Communist governments of Indochina steadfastly deny holding prisoners and refuse to provide information on those whose fate remains unknown. The influx of Indochinese refugees into this country over the past few years has resulted in additional evidence that the Vietnamese continue to hold Americans in captivity. The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). according to the national league. is currently investigating over 400 eyewitness reports pertaining to men still held captive. In fact. some sightings are as recent as December 1981.
