Indiana University of Pennsylvania is continuing its work at the site of an airplane crash during World War II in Germany.
The school was selected by the Department of Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency through the Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine, Inc. This marks the fifth year that IUP has received funding for study at the crash site in Baden-Wurttenburg, Germany. Work started there in 2022 and resumed in 2023 and ’24. Six IUP students will join 10 other students from universities from across America, with IUP faculty members Dr. Andrea Palmiotto and Dr. William Chadwick of the university’s Department of Anthropology, Geospatial and Earth Sciences directing the project.
While the students will not be analyzing any materials that they find, the field school provides an opportunity for the students to make and properly document the discoveries.
