Families reunite with bodies of missing British soldiers killed in Korean War | BBC News


Four British soldiers killed in the Korean War have finally been identified after more than 70 years.

They were buried for decades in unmarked graves at Korea’s UN cemetery, and their families were told their bodies would never be found.

Some of the soldiers’ children, now in their 70s, have been able to visit their fathers’ graves for the very first time.

These are the first unknown British soldiers killed in the conflict to be successfully identified.
