P-38 pilots still MIA ?

Hello,
These are four P-38 pilots that I think are still MIA from opps over Austria.
440524 - Teige, Quentin A. 2Lt. - 43-28261 - MACR 5184.
441127 - Haugh, Donald E. 1Lt. - 44-23231 - MACR 10080.
450130 - Dougharty, Charles R. 2Lt. - 43-28319 - MACR 11832.
450216 - Bertram, George A. 2Lt. - 43-28653 - MACR 12147.
Can anyone confirm if they have ever been found and laid to rest - and if so where ?
Many thanks
Alex

    Only Bertram is still listed MIA on the dtic.mil website.
     
    Dougharty evaded, his story is here:

    Teige is buried in Marinette WI. He was apparently KIA on 24  May 44.

    Hello Rolland,
    Many thanks for those links.
    I had forgotten the AAF one.
    Anything on Haugh ?

    Note Spelling:    Haug, Donald E  O-766518 is still listed MIA on
    http://www.dtic.mil/dpmo/wwii/reports/aaf_m_h.htm
     
    He was listed DED  on the MACR and the date on dtic is a year and a day after he was lost.

    Hello Rolland,
    Many thanks for your help.
    I had for some reason got the name spelling wrong, thanks again for the correction.
    I had missed it on the dtic site because of that.
    Thanks again
    Alex

    Hello PFF,
    Many thanks for the link and photos of headstone.
    I note that these are not graves but "Memorial Headstones" in an area set aside as a Memorial area. So Haug is still MIA ?
    Thanks again
    Alex
