Republic of Korea (ROK) Senior Chief Petty Officer Ho Jong Choi, the nephew of Private First Class Im Rak Choi, a ROK service member who was killed in action during the Korean War and recently identified by the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency and the Republic Of Korea's Ministry of National Defense for KIA Recovery and Identification (MAKRI), carries a transfer case during the Korean War Remains Repatriation Ceremony at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, July 25, 2023. The purpose of the ceremony was to transfer the remains and commemorate the service of seven fallen South Korean soldiers who fought alongside U.S. and United Nations forces during the Korean War. The remains were analyzed jointly by the DPAA laboratory and scientists with the MAKRI. Working cooperatively, they concluded that the seven individual remains are of South Korean origin, though six of the remains haven’t been individually identified. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt.
