Korean War

An Army Korean War veteran reported missing in action in February 1951 is finally being laid to rest this week.

Don Van Elzen served 21 months in Korea with the Army's 9th Regiment, 2nd Infantry Division from 1950 to 1952.

"These HEROES are home, they may Rest In Peace, and hopefully their families can have closure," Trump said in a Tweet.

The dog tag of an Army medic from Indiana missing from the Korean War was returned to his sons Wednesday.

Families of the missing from the Korean War spoke of their hopes for bringing home their loved ones' remains.

Funerals this week illustrate the difficulty forensic specialists will have in establishing identities for the 55 remains.

Despite pledges to dismantle its nuclear weapons and missile programs, North Korea has made no significant progress.

The remains returned by North Korea could be those of Army troops who fell at the Chosin Reservoir battle.

Caskets bearing the presumed remains of possibly 55 U.S. troops missing in Korea arrived back in the U.S. Wednesday.

The remains turned over by North Korea were sent to Hawaii on Wednesday.
