MIA & WWII Aircraft Search Organizations: Note from Pat Ranfranz: I have been in contact with the following MIA & WWII Aircraft search organizations. I have extensively shared information with some of the organizations and others I have had limited contact, however, all the organizations I have listed below are honorable and are truly dedicated to locating MIA's and helping others. It's equally as important what organizations are not listed below. Please feel free to email me if you feel a group is missing from this list and/or if you have a question about a MIA & WWII Aircraft search group.
- MissingAirCrew.com: Pat & Cherie Ranfranz are committed to locating and documenting the crash site of the Coleman B-24 (307th Bomb Group) and other American planes on or near Yap Island. Pat has spent over 20 years researching the 25 June 1944 shoot down and loss of his uncle, T/Sgt John R. McCullough, and the other nine members of the Coleman B-24. The original goal of locating the Coleman B-24 has been expanded to locating and documenting all the American crash sites on or near Yap Island. The MissingAirCrew.com project is committed to documenting the history of the men and their missions through documents, pictures, and oral history before the information is lost in time. The most important goal of the project is to help provide closure to the families of the missing men who lost their lives in service of their country during WWII. Close to 100 men were lost near Yap Island and remain listed as missing in action.
