So many people want to find Jesse, especially a search and rescue people who recognize what he has done and who he is.

There's a lot of people out there who care about our veterans and the amount of people that have stepped up to try and help has been amazing.

Arizona has so many people here that go missing and then they never found a big again because it's just such a massive place.

There are mountains everywhere.

And you know, the reservation here is huge. I mean, it's just as vast. There's so many places. So what I did is I just started to like make a grid system and I would just go down like different roads, one by one and then I started mapping it off.

Every time that I went out, I got more organized. I got like a huge map and I put it on my wall and I was marking it down with different colors.

37-year-old Jesse Conger was last seen leaving his girlfriend's apartment in Scottsdale, Arizona on August 14, 2019.

He drove off in his silver Toyota Camry and was never seen or heard from again. When Jesse's girlfriend returned home from work, she found a number of items missing that pointed to what possibly happened to Jesse.

A US Marine Corps veteran who had served multiple tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan. But more than two years later, what happened to Jesse Conger remains a mystery.

Jesse Conger was a strong, vibrant person who dedicated much of his career to rescuing others. Jesse has a twin sister Patricia, who initially reached out to us to cover Jesse's story. She told us about life growing up with her brother.

So I'm 20 minutes older and my dad says that Jesse has been trying to beat me at everything ever since I won that race and we're twins.

So naturally we get a lot of attention from that. We did everything together as kids. We didn't always get along.

We're kind of opposite his very outgoing and outspoken and said what he wanted and did whatever and I was always really quiet and shy.

We used to do, you know, kickball or baseball or whatever we would play football. If we were on the same team, the name of our team would always be the twin air winners.

My mom had us in separate classes except for one year we were in first grade together and we had the same class other than that. She always kept us separate because she was worried that we would not socialize with the other kids, but it didn't turn out that way at all.

We always had different friends and related to different kids differently. Jesse has always been really goofy and funny. He is kind of the life of the party for the most part.

He has a funny way of looking at things and he works really hard. He loves his kids and he really loves his work when he was a Marine. He volunteered for search and rescue to become a search and rescue swimmer.
