§17–107.
Official statutory text
If any member of the armed services of the United States has executed a power of attorney, the fact that that person has been reported or listed, officially or otherwise, as “missing in action”, as that phrase is used to describe a casualty category applicable to members of the armed services, does not operate to revoke the power of attorney, unless the instrument otherwise provides.
