Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP1953) and 7 other sources
On the afternoon of Saturday, March 30, 1985, 57-year-old George Robert Miles was at his place of employment, Carlton Massey Ford, on Route 13 in Pocomoke City, Maryland. At approximately 2:00 p.m., he informed his coworkers that he was going into the town of Pocomoke and would be back in a few minutes. Known to some as Bobby, Miles was a tall man, standing at 6 feet 3 inches and weighing around 215 pounds. At the time of his disappearance, he was balding with gray hair and had brown eyes. He had a scar on his nose and a mole on the left side of his chest. On that particular day, he was wearing a short-sleeved white shirt with navy blue stripes, dark gray pants, and black shoes. He departed from the car dealership driving a black 1985 Ford Escort that belonged to his employer.

George Miles was never seen or heard from again. The 1985 Ford Escort he was driving also vanished and has never been recovered. Investigations into his disappearance found no indication that he had been experiencing any domestic problems or other personal issues that might have prompted him to leave on his own accord. His statement to colleagues suggested he had a short-term plan and intended to return to work that day. The fact that he left in a company vehicle further supported the belief that he did not plan to disappear. His case has been classified as an endangered missing person, and from the outset, authorities have suspected that he was a victim of foul play.

For decades, the disappearance of George Miles has remained a troubling mystery for his family and the community of Pocomoke City. Despite the passage of time, law enforcement has not been able to generate any significant leads that would explain what happened to him on that March afternoon. The Maryland State Police have been the primary investigating agency, but without new evidence, the case has grown cold. The lack of any trace of Miles or the dealership's car has left a void of information, preventing any definitive conclusions from being drawn about his fate. The case remains an open and unsolved endangered missing person investigation, with the core circumstances pointing towards an involuntary disappearance where foul play is the most likely explanation.
