Here's a doozy. A challenge, if you will.

Can anyone tell me where to go or who to contact to find "lost items" that
are being held by the U.S. military?

I'm not interested in the various States' Unclaimed Property offices, as I
am already famailiar with these resources. I'm specifically interested in
who is responsible for unclaimed property associated with military
addresses. For instance, property and/or assets lost or misplaced in a move
between a civilian address and a military address.

Specifics: I'm trying to track down items lost between two moves. The first
was a move from Rapid City, SD to Pago Pago, American Samoa. The second was a move
from Wyoming to Menwith Air Force Base in Harrogate, England. Items also
may have been lost during transportation from civilian storage storage in Rapid 
City to military storage. Some items made it to their final destination (Kalkaska,
MI), but several boxes are still missing. All moves occurred between 1979 and 1985.

The person who can provide me with the correct information, even if it does
not result in the recovery of unclaimed property, gets a free gift
(probably a book). You CamList old-timers are already familiar with my
research-for-free-stuff episodes. Well, here's another chance.

Feel free to send me as many pointers or as much information as you can find.
