In November 18, 1942, Ernest Glenn Munn, 23, of St. Clairsville, Ohio left Sacramento, California for a training flight aboard an AT-7 navigational trainer plane together with three other companions from the army air corps. They never came back.

Sixty five years later in August of last year, campers in a remote area of Kings Canyon sought the help of rangers as they discovered a frozen, decomposing body atop of a glacier. Not far away from the body is an un-launched military parachute.

On Monday an official from the Army's Human Resources Command called Munn's sister Jeanne Pyle, now 87 years old, in St. Clairsville confirming the frozen remains were those of Munn. Pyle had given the army a sample of her DNA to help identify the body.

"I don't know about the feeling. I am so happy that maybe we'll have a closure on this now because it's really upsetting," said Pyle.

Ernest Glenn Munn is finally coming home. He will be buried near his parents in the family plot, across the street from where Pyle lives.
