Since this refers to WWII vets, I was wondering just who one might contact to inquire about bodies from WWII?? My husband and I lost three brothers, one who died in Myitkyna, Burma in the Infantry, one who was navy missing in action over Saipan, and one who was drowned in the water in the landing at Midway. The telegrams of deaths said more information to follow. So much for that. I have been thinking a lot lately about trying to find more information. It still rankles me!
