No identifiers

@othram I assume DNA isn’t available just because no one’s bothered to get it?

Possibly Alan Bourke, 19yo missing New Orleans LA Feb 1970. Alan failed to report for duty on Feb 9 at Keesler AFB, Mississippi. 5'8" 160lbs

Maybe Earl Lee Dannels, he was living in Albany and a student at UC Berkeley, he stopped attending classes early Nov 1969, never seen again. 5'9" 150lbs

No identifiers at all? No DNA?

This body was found in Los Angeles County, and the disposal policy for UID remains at the time means he would have been sent to the county crematorium on or about April 28, 1970, exactly one month after being found. There are likely no preserved biological or clothing samples to pull DNA from either.

If he was too decomposed to pull fingerprints (although how the Doe Network lists identifiers should ALWAYS be taken with a grain of salt, because this data was pulled from NamUs back when it was showed publicly on there, which means everything is only up to date as of 2017 at the latest, which is also why all profiles made after that time say "Unknown" for all three), and dental charting was not taken for whatever reason, then he would not have any identifiers.
