DPAA’s Partnerships & Innovation Directorate’s Innovation Forum, “Decisions through Data: Analytics, AI, and Interoperability in Underwater Archaeology and Beyond,” wrapped up after three days of collaboration among partner underwater data creators, users, scientists, and agency experts. Together, we explored how data-driven solutions can advance the DPAA’s mission. This is just the beginning of turning data into actionable insights for discovery and recovery.
The forum was a two-way exchange of expertise, as DPAA staff shared how the agency navigates the complexities of underwater operations and data challenges. Meanwhile, partners revealed cutting-edge approaches to organizing and leveraging data, along with the AI tools they’re building to turn information into action.
A special thank you to our host partner, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, for making this gathering possible.

DPAA conducted a transfer of remains ceremony for U.S. Army Pvt. Robert E. Dubois at the Daniel K. Inouye DPAA Center of Excellence, Oct. 21, 2026. Dubois’ great-nephew, U.S. Army Col. Andrew DuBois, served as the special escort accompanying his great-uncle's remains on the next step of his journey home.
Dubois served with the 200th Coast Artillery Regiment in the Philippines during World War II. Following the fall of Bataan in April 1942, he endured the Bataan Death March before being held at Cabanatuan Prison Camp, where he died on July 4, 1942. After more than eight decades, Dubois was officially accounted for on April 22, 2026. The transfer marks another step toward returning a fallen service member to his family, reflecting DPAA’s enduring commitment to accounting for those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to the nation.

U.S. Navy Fireman 1st Class Howard Lucas Adkins was laid to rest with full military honors at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, on Oct. 8, nearly 85 years after he was killed during the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Adkins served aboard USS California (BB-44) and was among 103 crewmen who died during the Dec. 7, 1941, attack. His remains were among those previously interred as Unknowns at the cemetery before being exhumed in 2018 for further analysis.
DPAA scientists identified Adkins on Oct. 17, 2025, through modern forensic methods. His identification ensured that more than eight decades after his loss, Adkins could be honored by name and laid to rest with the recognition he earned through his service and sacrifice.

From the battlefields of World War I to modern operations, our nations have stood together. Our allied partner saw first-hand and continues to see our nations dedication to our military's Warrior Ethos to "never leave a fallen comrade behind".
