The Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency returned of remains of Sailors and Marines lost aboard the USS Oklahoma on 24 June. Ceremonies in Nebraska and Hawaii honored these Sailors and Marines killed during the attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, and who were unable to be identified. The remains will be turned over to the Navy for burial at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific (NMCP) in Honolulu on the 80th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
The identification of 338 individuals, to date, from the USS Oklahoma represents the first successful completion of a project of such scope and complexity. Nearly 86% of unknowns from the USS Oklahoma have been individually identified.
