When Ray Kapaun’s cell phone rang Thursday morning in his house north of Seattle, he didn’t recognize the number so he let it go to voicemail.
“My wife came out, she goes, ‘You may want to listen to this message,’ ” Ray Kapaun recalled. “‘It s from somebody at Fort Knox about your uncle.”
Ray’s uncle is Father Emil Kapaun, a Medal of Honor recipient who died in a North Korean prisoner of war camp in 1951. He was buried in a shallow grave there.
But it turns out his remains, along with other soldiers, were returned to the U.S. shortly after the end of the Korean War. They were buried at the National Cemetery of the Pacific in Hawaii, informally known as the “Punchbowl.” ....
