Creates a Department of Defense program to identify and track non-combat military aircraft losses (called “Operational Loss/Non‑War Loss”), publish a public database of service members who died in those incidents, and provide targeted support to the families of the deceased. It requires a designated DoD point of contact, allows DoD to consult outside organizations, mandates a progress report to Congress on program operations and family support, applies federal nondiscrimination rules to program-funded activities, and directs DoD and VA to issue implementing regulations.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Armed Services.
