A project our team at the @uwmadison.bsky.social Missing in Action Recovery and Identification Project helped with last week:

Unidentified WWI soldier exhumed from Wausau cemetery as agencies work to identify man
The veteran died by suicide in 1930 and left a note that did not contain his name. He was buried with military honors in Pine Grove Cemetery in Wausau.

This Memorial Day, we highlight UW–Madison’s MIA Project, which is helping to discover and return the remains of soldiers who went missing in WWII and other conflicts.

So far there have been three measles deaths in under six weeks in the ongoing US measles outbreak.

Prior to this year there had only been three measles deaths in the United States in total in the entire last thirty years.
Third measles death
This is not normal. For three reasons.

A lesser known point on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon at dusk this past week. It’s not marked on the park maps, and one can often have it all to yourself. The true epitome of “sublime”.
Protect our parks!

Seems appropriate this weekend to revisit @timothysnyder.bsky.social complete #Yale class on the history of #Ukraine. It’s an investment in time, but very worthwhile:

Don’t point lasers at aircraft!
UW Health is condemning anyone pointing lasers at aircraft after noting two crews were hit by lasers Tuesday night in different areas.
UW Health Med Flight reports lasers pointed at crews
UW Health warned that, in addition to it being against federal law, pointing lasers can blind crews.
