A very close and dear nephew to my father was captured and later died in a NKorean prison camp.

His remains have never been found. As far as I know he has no surviving relatives. I’ve researched him and know his division and in what battle he was taken prisoner.

Any tips on how I can get some help in having his remains, if and when found, identified, and optimially bringing him home?
Thanks

JPAC has hundreds of sets of remains that they have been unable to identify. They are asking blood relatives to provide them with a DNA sample so that they can try and find a match.

Here is the site to go to for more information.

Good luck with this.
