I am pleased to report that last week, the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) transferred the remains of more than 20 service members killed during the Battle of Tarawa in WWII back to the U.S. @dodpaahttps://www.dpaa.mil/News-Stories/News-Releases/PressReleaseArticleView/Article/1908407/us-servicemen-killed-during-battle-of-tarawa-to-be-returned-to-united-states/ …

This will eventually enable positive identification of each of our service members and allow for the return of these American heroes to their families and home communities where they will be buried with the honors and dignity that they deserve.

The recovery teams, forensic pathologists and staff at DPAA are doing great work on behalf of the American people to bring our nation’s heroes home. @dodpaahttps://www.dpaa.mil/News-Stories/News-Releases/PressReleaseArticleView/Article/1908407/us-servicemen-killed-during-battle-of-tarawa-to-be-returned-to-united-states/ …
