national pow/mia recognition posters
We thought it was important to remind everyone that National POW/MIA Recognition Day is always the third Friday in September. Established in 1979 through a proclamation signed by President Jimmy Carter, it has since become an annual proclamation issued by each subsequent president.
Traditionally, a ceremony is held at the Pentagon featuring members from each branch of the U.S. Military with participation from high-ranking officials. Nationally, ceremonies are held across the country on military installations, state capitols, schools and Veterans' facilities.
No matter where they are held, these National POW/MIA Recognition Day ceremonies share the common purpose of honoring those who were held captive and returned, as well as those who remain missing.
Since 1999, the POW/MIA Accounting community has created a poster commemorating National POW/MIA Recognition Day. We hope you appreciate the significance of each of them and enjoying viewing them.
