About

"On October 26, 1947, in New York City, the casket of a fallen World War II American soldier was borne in a funeral procession down Fifth Avenue, while hundreds of thousands looked on silently. Thus began the "most melancholy immigration movement" in history--the return of 233,181 American war dead to their home shores. Never before had a nation returned so many of its fallen warriors from distant battlefields."--Jacket.
