Families Find Closure After Decades | Omaha News

Families of WWII and Korean War soldiers found long-awaited closure as the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency’s Omaha lab completed 200 identifications this year—each one a decades-long journey brought to light through DNA, dental records, and archaeology. For some, like Dean, the search spanned generations; for others, it meant finally visiting a grave they never knew existed. Dr. Carrie Brown shared heartfelt words from families who felt the lab loved their lost heroes as much as they did. With labs in Hawaii too, the agency vows to keep searching—even on the toughest cases. If you’re seeking answers for a missing loved one, start with a DNA sample at DPAA.mil.
