NFSU locating WWII US service members
NFSU isn't new to tough situations: it has handled big cases like the AI-171 plane crash last year and is actively working to locate American service members who went missing in India during World War II as part of a notable ongoing partnership with the United States Department of Defense.
Its experience means families in Nepal are in good hands during a really tough time.
