Description
The remains of a soldier killed during World War II are back in Indiana.
His arrival caps years of effort to properly identify him.
Army Pvt. LeRoy Miller died in November of 1944. His battalion was attacked in Germany and his remains could not be recovered.
Then, after the war, the American Graves Registration Command was tasked with recovering missing Americans in Europe. That's when a team found Miller's identification tag, linking him to one set of remains.
