As I have listened to testimony and reviewed documents over the past year. my feelings about the war and about our efforts to account for POW/MIAs have shifted between anger and sadness. Despite the disagreements that have sometimes arisen. I believe. in the end. the committee has always managed to retain its focus on the most important objective: Obtaining the fullest possible accounting for missing Americans. Over the past year. the committee has examined information from every available source. from refugee livesighting reports to satellite imagery. in the hope that some Americans might still be found alive. In addition. the committee has been able to draw on substantial resources on the ground in Vietnam. Laos. and the republics of the former Soviet Union to investigate reports and gather information.
