The Defense Department's Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) has recently identified five missing servicemen, three from Pearl Harbor in World War II and two from the Korean War.
Both Korean War soldiers -- Sgt. Howard Malcom, 23, and Sgt. Allen Tuttle, 23-- had been unaccounted for since December 1950 and died in the same POW camp, according to the DPAA.
Malcom, who died in August 1951, was accounted for on October 25.
Tuttle, who died in March 1951, was identified on October 26.
