U.S. military takes possession of remains that North Korea says belong to Americans who died in the Korean War
OSAN AIR BASE, South Korea — A U.S. Air Force plane carrying what are thought to be the remains of 55 Americans killed during the Korean War arrived at Osan Air Base in South Korea on Friday morning, the 65th anniversary of the armistice that ended the fighting.
The U.S. Air Force C-17 aircraft departed for Kalma Airport in the North Korean city of Wonsan before 6 a.m. Friday. It returned about 11 a.m. local time and was greeted by a crowd of several hundred U.S. service members and their families. U.S. service members from throughout South Korea were invited to the event.
The exchange means that one part of the agreement reached between President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Singapore on June 12 has been partially fulfilled — albeit more slowly than many had anticipated.
“After so many years, this will be a great moment for so many families. Thank you to Kim Jong Un,” Trump tweeted.
