The No American Left Behind Act mandates a Department of Defense report on the recovery of U.S. nationals abroad.
The No American Left Behind Act requires the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to Congress on the recovery, repatriation, and accountability of U.S. nationals held hostage, unlawfully detained, or unaccounted for abroad. The report must address cases in areas of current or recent U.S. military operations, particularly in Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan. It includes assessments on the feasibility of a "No American Left Behind" doctrine, intelligence and situational awareness, operational planning, and statutory authorities affecting recovery efforts.
