died in United Nations prisoner of war
camps were turned over to the South
Korean Government. After “Operation
Glory” 416 Korean War “unknowns” were
buried in the Punchbowl Cemetery. According
to one report, 1,394 names were
also transmitted during “Operation Glory”
from the Chinese and North Koreans (of
which 858 names proved to be correct);
of the 4,167 returned remains were found
to be 4,219 individuals of whom 2,944
were found to be Americans of whom all
but 416 were identified by name. Of 239
Korean War unaccounted for: 186 not associated
with Punchbowl unknowns (176
were identified and of the remaining 10
cases four were non-Americans of Asiatic
descent; one was British; three were
identified and two cases unconfirmed).
Fifty-seven years after the Korean War,
remains of two of the “Punchbowl unknowns”
were identified—both from the
1st Marine Division. One was Pfc. Donald
Morris Walker of Support Company/1st
Service Battalion/1st Marine Division who
was KIA December 7, 1950 and the other
was Pfc. Carl West of Weapons Company/1st
Battalion/7th Regiment/1st Marine
Division who was KIA December 10, 1950.
In 2011 remains of an unknown USAF pilot
from Operation Glory were identified
from the “Punchbowl Cemetery”; POW
remains from “Operation Glory” were
also identified in 2011.
From 1990 to 1994, North Korea excavated
and turned over 208 sets of remains—
possibly containing remains of 200–400
US Servicemen—but few identifiable because
of co-mingling of remains. In 2011
remains were identified.
From 1996 to 2006, 220 remains were recovered
near the Chinese border. In 2008,
a total of 63 were identified (26 World War
II; 19 Korea; 18 Vietnam) (Among those
identified: January 2008 remains of a
Michigan soldier. In March 2008, remains
of an Indiana soldier and an Ohio soldier
were identified). According to a report
June 24, 2008, of 10 Korean War Remains
disinterred from the “Punchbowl Cemetery”
six have been identified. From
January to April 2009, a total of twelve
Unknowns have been identified—three
from World War II; eight from Korean
War; one from Vietnam. In 2011 remains
returned in 2000 were identified.
In 1964, the American Battle Monuments
Commission erected the Honolulu Memorial
at the National Memorial Cemetery
“to honor the sacrifices and achievements
of American Armed Forces in the
Pacific during World War II and in the
Korean War”. The memorial was later expanded
in 1980 to include the Vietnam
War. The names of 28,788 military personnel
who are missing in action or were
lost or buried at sea in the Pacific during
these conflicts are listed on marble slabs
in ten Courts of the Missing which flank
the Memorial’s grand stone staircase.
The Honolulu Memorial is one of three
war memorials in the United States administered
by the American Battle Monuments
Commission; the others are the
East Coast Memorial to the Missing of
World War II in New York and the West
Coast Memorial to the Missing of World
War II in San Francisco.
