Caskets Sent to DMZ to Receive US Service Members’ Remains

Breitbart: The U.S. military announced it moved 100 caskets to the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea on Saturday in anticipation of North Korea’s release of the remains of U.S. service members who went missing during the Korean War in the 1950s.

U.S. Forces Korea announced Saturday the wooden “Temporary Transit Cases” had been sent to the DMZ as North Korea prepares to return the remains of fallen American service members who died during the Korean War.

U.S. Forces Korea spokesman Col. Chad Carroll told Fox News the military also sent 158 metal cases to a U.S. airbase outside of Seoul to transfer the remains to the U.S.

South Korean news outlet Yonhap News Agency reported that the cases would be stored in Panmunjom, a border town, for several days before they are sent to North Korea to receive the American remains.  read more here

  1. Repatriation of our War dead first and foremost, secondly NK to return the USS Pueblo or the US will sink the outdated 73 year old light cargo ship. Its only worth is salvage metal and propaganda for NK or the US.

  3. Not all American POWs were released at the end of the conflict in Korea. Many US POWs were also not released after previous wars, including Viet Nam. Many of these POWs were sent into Russian gulags and used for experiments. These alleged remains could very well be of the soldiers who died while still held in captivity after war’s end. And the lying, treasonous US officials have always known this.

  4. I hope these honored dead are brought home conspicuously, marched through Downtown America with full military honors, not hidden away privately on their overdue journey.

    This may be the most notable moment in history since Hirohito’s surrender.
