history: In 1943 the Tracing Bureau was formed through the work of the Allied Forces Headquarters at the British Red Cross as an initial effort to trace missing persons from the war. On 15 February 1944 the Central Tracing Bureau, under SHAEF (Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Forces), was established as a more thorough investigative effort to seek missing persons.Eventually this humanitarian organization moved its location to Bad Arolsen (a central location amid the four occupation zones in Germany), and in 1948 was renamed the International Tracing Service. In the 1950s the work of ITS was executed under an international commission, and managed by a neutral institution, the ICRC (International Committee of the Red Cross) in Geneva. Today discovering the history of individual persons remains one of the primary objectives of ITS.In 2007 the archive of ITS has been open for research. In 2012 the ICRC ceased management activity of ITS, and the Bundesarchiv became its institutional partner.
