War Dead Remains Returned to U.S.

North Korea has returned the remains of what are believed to be six U.S. soldiers killed during the Korean War. About 30 visiting American veterans of the 1950-53 conflict saluted as caskets containing the remains were handed over in the border village of Panmunjom. The remains were being sent to an Army laboratory in Hawaii for possible identification. The soldiers are believed to have served with the Army’s 38th Infantry Regiment, 2nd Infantry Division. The remains were discovered along the Chongchon River, 100 miles north of Pyongyang, North Korea’s capital.
