AKRON, Ohio (AP) - The newly identified body of a Marine killed in Korea in 1950 will be flown to Cleveland tomorrow and a funeral service is planned Thursday near Akron.

Private First Class Nick DiSalvo of Copley Township was killed during the Chosin Reservoir battle when Marines fought an onslaught of Red Chinese troops.

Comrades buried his body near the battle scene and the unidentified remains were turned over to the US in 1953. The body was recently identified through an unusual tooth filling and evidence of 2 childhood arm fractures.
