The MRS-SPG Global Response and Recovery Executive Leadership Team (ELT) has unmatched experience in international mass fatality situations, such as the 2004 South Asia Tsunami and the 2010 Haiti Earthquake.
The majority of our ELT and Associates have extensive experience working within DPAA, as well as the Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command (JPAC), prior to the birth of DPAA in MIA search, recovery and investigations and leadership/management/command and control of worldwide field teams.
How It Works
MRS-SHG can respond rapidly to international mass fatality situations with an experienced ELT and Associates to provide situational assessments to US and international governments, private companies and families to assess the scope of the incident, conduct logistical assessments and recommend appropriate courses of action.
We can quickly deploy our elements to search for, recover, identify and repatriate disaster victims to their respective countries with dignity and respect. MRS can also assist families and international companies with locating, securing and repatriating the remains of their loved-ones or employees who die abroad, to include settling personal affairs of the decedent and liquidation of real and personal property.
