Hello,
Frist of all thank you for all that you did in surving our country. I am writing to you in
reference to your post.
Soldier: DONALD N CADDELL
Born: December 19, 1932, Caucasian
Date of loss: Jan. 12, 1952, KIA
Donald N Caddell was my father's brother. My father's name Is Albert M. Caddell.
He has completed the DNA test just last year and we rec'd a letter stating no matches
at this time. My question is, Is there away I can get a copy of his service picture of him
for my fathers birthday as a surprise. We do not have any pictures of him at all. My email
is kalostewart(a)yahoo.com
Thank you,
Angie Caddell

I am searching for the family of a soldier who was killed in the Korea War. When he
entered service he gave Greene County Indiana as his home of record. His remains were
never recovered.

When the Korean War ended the enemy never returned or accounted for over 8,000 of our
servicemen. They died in their hands. That was over 50 years ago. Since that time DNA has
been perfected and also they are recovering remains in North Korea. Our government is
obligated to return those remains to the proper family. DNA samples have been obtained
from most of the families of these missing soldiers. For various reasons some families
have not been located. The CADDELL family is one of those missing.
When the remains are recovered and identified they will be returned to the family for
proper burial. I am just an old (76 years) Combat Veteran out of the Korean War and
thankful that I did return. I consider this a very noble cause and I hope that you can
help in some way to find this family. For more information on the project you may go to
http://www.jpac.pacom.mil/. My part in the program is to match up the lost families with
the proper agency.
I will be grateful for any assistance in locating this family.
