Korean War Missing DNA Project

There are 203 Kentuckians whose bodies have not been returned from the Korean War.  KDVA is assisting the DOD POW/MIA office in locating family members of these missing in an effort to obtain DNA samples that will be very helpful in identifying remains as they are found and returned to the US. We have located many family members, but are still looking for family members of 47.
