I am searching for the families of 4 soldiers that were POW/KIA in the Korean War. When they entered service they gave Lycoming County as thier home of record

Soldier: ROBERT LEWIS FELIX
Born: 1929
Date of loss; Msy 19, 1951 POW

Soldier: ARNOLD RAY FLOOK
Born: 1916
Loss: Dec. 7, 1950 KIA

Soldier: JOSEPH ALBERT MCELROY
Born: 1918
Loss: July 20, 1950

Soldier: CLAUDE H WILLIAMSON
Born: 1931
Loss: July 11, 1950 POW


When the Korean War ended the enemy never returned or accounted for over 8,000 of our servicemen. They died in their hands. That was over 50 years ago. Since that time DNA has been perfected and also they are recovering remains in North Korea. Our government is obligated to return those remains to the proper family. DNA samples have been obtained from most of the families of these missing soldiers. For various reasons some families have not been located. These are 117 families from Pennsylvania that are missing and 4 from Lycoming County.

When the remains are recovered and identified they will be returned to the family for proper burial. I am just an old (79years) Combat Veteran out of the Korean War and thankful that I did return. I consider this a very noble cause and I hope that you can help in some way to find this family. For more information on the project you may go to http://www.jpac.pacom.mil/. My part in the program is to match up the lost families with the proper agency.

I will be grateful for any assistance in locating this family.
