Everyday at Arlington National Cemetery there are moments that take your breath away. Such was the case recently when the remains of 7 United States Marines, who were thought lost forever when their plane crashed during World War II. The families of the fallen were told that the plane went down in the Pacific Ocean and that their remains were unrecoverable. That was the truth the families lived with for almost 70 years, until one day, deep in the jungle, a discovery that would finally provide them with some closure.

This story is part of a 30 minute long special report that will air on 7&4 Saturday, November 10th at 7 pm, and then again Sunday morning on our sister station ABC 29&8 at 10 am
