More war dead found

March 17, 2017

The bodies of another 165 Iranian soldiers who died fighting inside Iraq during the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq war were repatriated Sunday.  That was 28 1/2 years after the end of the war.  Bodies often turn up long after wars.  About a decade ago, the United States discovered the remains of a soldier killed in the 1862 Civil War Battle of Antietam in Maryland.
