Nearly 80 years after the attack on Pearl Harbor, two brothers from Indiana have been accounted for.

Around 3-thousand Americans were killed in the attack — and there are still many unidentified bodies.

That’s minus the remains of two bodies found after the attack.

They’ve finally been identified as Harold and William Trapp — two brothers were from LaPorte who were sailors aboard the USS Oklahoma when it capsized.

Advanced dental records and DNA testing analysis were used to confirm the identity of the brothers’ remains.

They’ll be properly buried in Honolulu next month.
