The Department of Defense DNA Registry and the U.S. Government Accounting Mission

In December 1991, AFDIL sent a team to the U.S Army Central Identification Laboratory-Hawaii (CILHI) to develop a strategy for AFDIL support of CILHI casework. And in 1992, with the establishment of Joint Task Force – Full Accounting (JTF-FA), the CILHI requested through the U.S. Army Deputy Chief of Staff for Personnel that AFDIL scale-up operations to increase case output. With approval from ASD (HA), initial funding was made available from the U.S. Army Casualty and Memorial Affairs Operations Center (CMAOC). Expand and accelerate accounting efforts worldwide, achieve unity of U.S. Government accounting efforts, maintain personnel recovery capabilities that meet current and future joint, interagency, and coalition requirements, reinforce confidence in U.S. Government personnel accounting with our national constituency, develop and maintain a skilled, diverse workforce with the tools to succeed, and leverage technology to enhance personnel accounting and recovery.
