Clark’s remains were recently located overseas

I would have liked to know where PFC Clark's remains were found since he was reported MIA. North Korea? Red China? Anyway, welcome home to this brave soldier.

The 35th Regiment was involved in the Battle of the Ch’ongch’on River on November 30, 1950. Same time as the Chosin Reservoir.

Some of the most horrible fighting any American soldier has had to endure. -35F temperatures and vastly outnumbered by the Chinese. They were overran. Complete chaos.

God bless Jack Clark.

I wonder if he has any family left?

The only brother of my former mother-in-law went missing in Korea, and he has never been found. She is not getting any younger. It would be great if he would be found while she can bury him.

Browcaw has referred to the WWII generation as "The Greatest Generation",an absolutely accurate label.I,for one,include the Korean War generation in that group.Rest with God,Private Clark...your sacrifice will never be forgotten.
