He reminds me very much of this missing person:
Jeremy Freeman Crocker – The Charley Project
Mr. Crocker is missing from Los Angeles, California since late 1996. At the time he was researching the July 1996 crash of TWA Flight 800 (not familiar with it). But he had written some articles and did some interviews about it, chasing his theory that a missile had caused the crash. It appears he looked into other disasters also.

He was a very educated man, an engineer at the time, and it was not like him to just disappear. Apparently they believe he is/was in a hospital or nursing home. Not sure as to why they believe that, I’ve not read much about the specifics, but seeing the recons of this UID reminded me of him...

I've heard of Crocker. You can find out quite a lot about his disappearance (mostly not true) if you happen to be a fan of conspiracy theories and militias and all that. They think the government offed him or locked him up because of his research. (TWA Flight 800 exploded a few minutes after takeoff due to a short circuit in the fuel monitoring system that caused an explosion TWA Flight 800 - Wikipedia)

He looks pretty similar to the UID, and the clothing more or less matches. He's way too tall, though...I generally take height estimates with a grain of salt but half a foot is starting to be quite a lot.

I don’t see this one. The deformed leg is interesting, but there’s no mention of any type of surgical hardware. Doesn’t mean Dana didn’t have it, but seems like there’d be mention of it.

Mostly though, it’s the face. I think Dana’s skull shape is very different. The UID has a fairly predominant and protruding chin, whereas Dana’s is the exact opposite; receding. I especially see the difference in the profile images. It could be the angle, so hopefully someone else will weigh in! But the leg deformity could be enough to warrant a proper rule in/out.
