"Unknown Soldier" -- Vukovic and Graves are sent by the General on a mission to track down the relatives of a Vietnam vet whose remains are finally found, on JAG, Friday, April 15 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Michael Vejar directed the episode from a script by Dana Coen, one of the series' co-executive producers.

Multiple Grammy Award winner Gladys Knight guest stars as a blues singer who had a connection to the last living relative of the missing solider. Joe Regalbuto ("Murphy Brown") guest stars as General Cresswell's brother.

When remains of a Vietnam solider are found in Laos, General Cresswell's brother believes they are those of a chopper pilot whose heroic actions saved his life on the battlefield. Vukovic and Graves are sent to find the veteran's only known relatives in an effort to tell them of his heroism. Meanwhile, Harm and Mac find themselves on opposing sides when a Naval Reserve doctor is accused of disobeying orders when she attempted to save the life of a severely wounded Iraqi child.
