World War II played out on a much larger scale. U.S. soldiers fell all over the world. After years of recovery, 270,000 identifiable fallen were buried in 450 temporary cemeteries in 86 countries, before a nearly identical ratio of the next of kin again chose return, this time at a cost of almost $100 million.
Our combat dead would be recovered as quickly as possible from the battlefield, then flown to a military mortuary facility, and ultimately buried according to the wishes of the next of kin. During the recent Middle East wars, the main facility has been located at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware. Instead of years, our Soldier Dead now arrived home in days.
