Mission Statement:
Provide Code of Conduct/SERE training and subject matter expertise for the DoD, including all related training in the U.S. Government, enabling isolated persons to return with honor.

The Joint Personnel Recovery Agency's PRA has a long history of support to the Personnel Recovery mission. From Cold War origins in 1961 at Stead Air Force Base, Nevada following the shoot down of Francis Gary Power's U-2 over the Soviet Union, the Academy has expanded its programs to meet today's emerging threat to our Armed Forces. Serving under the Joint Forces Command, the Academy is proud to provide training to the Service men and women of America.
