(Robert Blechl\/Caledonian-Record via AP)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the war, unidentified remains were buried at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Honolulu, the agency said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2020, the agency disinterred some of the remains and sent them to a laboratory for analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sidney\u2019s remains were identified in August through dental and anthropological analysis, mitochondrial DNA analysis and circumstantial evidence, the agency said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sidney was the oldest of five children and would have turned 95 on Friday. He had three sisters and a brother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hartford, who never met him, said the most beautiful part of the ceremony was seeing Sidney\u2019s one remaining sibling, Patricia Lyons, 90, in attendance, standing by his casket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt was touching and heartwarming and emotional to see her realize this impossible dream of him coming home,\u201d Hartford said of her aunt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hartford&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.caledonianrecord.com\/news\/local\/korean-war-pow-coming-home\/article_6f102e00-6a2f-5081-91cd-cd717508c4d3.html\" target=\"_blank\">told<\/a>&nbsp;the Caledonian-Record earlier this year that the family got a call from the agency in March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey were searching for Uncle Alfred and were hoping for DNA from myself and anyone else in the family, specifically a male,\u201d she said. \u201cI was able to search out one of my cousins, who was the son of Alfred\u2019s only brother, which was crucial in the process.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hartford also said her mother, who passed away in 2013, was instrumental in keeping family records and ancestry documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sidney had been studying for a career in refrigeration at the time he was deployed to Korea. He was regarded as \u201ceverybody\u2019s big brother, everyone\u2019s hero,\u201d before the war, Hartford said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2010, Sidney was among 28 New Hampshire prisoners of war who died in captivity who was honored with posthumous Purple Hearts. Sixteen of the soldiers served in World War II, and 12 served in the Korean War.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His family is planning to visit the cemetery in Hawaii next month, where a rosette will be placed next to Sidney\u2019s name to indicate that he has been accounted for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Army Sgt.
