U.S. service members with the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) honor the fallen during a disinterment ceremony OCT. 23, 2023, at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific (NMCP) in Honolulu, Hawaii. Given the large number of remains, DPAA has begun phase five of disinterring 652 sets of unknown remains associated with the Korean War that had been buried at the NMCP. The plan is to disinter the remains in seven phases over the next five to seven years. As the remains are identified in this method, it will reduce the potential candidates for subsequent phases, and thereby provide quicker identifications. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Edward Randolph)
