WASHINGTON, June 25 (UPI) -- The remains of a U.S. soldier killed in the Korean War have been identified as those of an enlisted man from Indiana, the military said Wednesday.

The Defense Department's POW/Missing Personnel Office said in a statement the remains of Sgt. Gene F. Clark of Muncie, Ind., will be returned to his family for burial with full military honors. He is to be buried Saturday in Muncie.

Clark was serving with the 1st Cavalry Division along North Korea's Nammyon River near a bend known as the "Camel's Head" when two Chinese army divisions attack on Nov. 1, 1950, the Defense Department said. Clark was reported missing the next day -- one of more than 350 servicemen unaccounted-for from the battle at Unsan.

Clark's remains were determined to have been among 208 boxes believed to contain the remains of 200-400 U.S. troops North Korean turned over to the United States between 1991 and 1994. His dog tag and other forensic evidence was used to confirm the remains were those of Clark.
