[Captain Peter Blood]

I stand corrected, I just checked the web and they claim that was Mallory's body they found. I thought that at the time in 1999 they claimed they found Irvine's body.
The only proof was a name tag on the clothes that they belonged to Mallory, but could have been Irvine.
Like I say if enough snow ever melts the truth may be settled one way or another.

At first the expedition members thought they had found Irvine's body. But in addition to the name tags in the clothes, they found letters and other artifacts on the body. They also took hair and skin samples for DNA analysis.

Haven't seen the results of the DNA testing, but if it had NOT been Mallory I'm sure we would have heard by now (his grandson is still alive).
