Here is a article the local news did I deleted some names and places.. I think I got most all identifying stuff gone

After eight decades, the remains of a World War II veteran have finally been identified and returned home.


On Sept. 30, 2022, received a call his family has waited 80 years for. The remains of his uncle killed during World War II were found.




"I think it brings closure for the family,"said. "It’s something that came totally unexpected, and now the family can rejoice in the fact that Uncle John is home with his family."
BACKGROUND: 80 years later, WWII pilot's remains coming home to Rochester
1st Lt. John Thomas became a Liberator pilot for the U.S. Army Air Forces. In the summer of 1943, the plane he was piloting in Romania was hit by enemy fire.
"The U.S. Army Air Corps was bombing Hitler's gas station they called it," Thomas said. "There were 150 some airplanes and, unfortunately, the Germans were waiting for them."
Thomas was one of 660 crew members who lost their lives during the operation. For years, the Thomas family struggled with the loss and the unanswered questions.
"I had an aunt who every time Uncle Jon’s name was mentioned, she would cry about the loss of her brother," said
Last September, scientists positively identified John Thomas' remains, in part, by using DNA Ed Thomas had submitted years earlier. He had been buried by local Romanians. Years later, his body was brought back to Nebraska.
"They called them the X-files because they had no name," said
John Thomas will be buried May 20 next to his twin brother at the Cemetery in on what would have been his 103rd birthday.
"The people who go into the military service deserve recognition, and they deserve to be brought home," said.
"The sacrifices that they have given individually for their country and for their families should not be forgotten."

Well, what if there are birds that stay up really late at night and collect all the worms before you get up?
