WHAT HAPPENED TO THE FROZEN SOLDIER ???

CNN ditched the story I guess, so I looked this up:
SACRAMENTO, CA, United States (UPI) — Family members are hoping a body found in Kings Canon National Park is that of a World War II airman who crashed in the Sierra Nevada mountains.
Army Cadet Ernest Munn was 23-years-old when his plane went down in 1942. His body was never found.
‘I`m just holding on that it will be him,’ Munn`s sister, Sarah Zeyer of Saint Clairsville, Ohio, told the Sacramento Bee. ‘I`m just overjoyed.’
Hikers found the body embedded in ice on Mount Mendel, garbed in a wool sweater and a cotton canvas flight suit.
The body arrived Monday at the Joint POW-MIA Accounting Command at Hickam Air Force Base in Hawaii, home of the world`s largest forensic anthropology laboratory.
Forensic anthropologists also will examine a pen, small notebook, comb and coins from inside the airman`s Army uniform and a badly corroded name badge.
Others on the flight were John Mortenson, 25, from Moscow, Idaho; Leo Mustonen, 22, from Brainerd, Minn., and pilot William Gamber, 23, of Fayette, Ohio.
