Article: Anguished Families Await Identification of Airman Found in Glacier
Found in: The Los Angeles Times
Published: November 1, 2005

I found this article interesting because it is a human interest story that has relevance to the California population. The article is about preserved remains found near debris of a plane crash from more than 60 years ago in the Sierra Nevada mountains. I found this story particularly intriguing because it examines the tragic situation from many different perspectives. The article contains short interviews with people who could be related to or who could have known the person of interest. The story includes different histories of the potential "ice-man" (the attractive high school student, the sweet husband, the boy next door), but I believe the main moral behind the article is that many people lost loved ones in World War Two and society should not let the memories and lives of these great men die.
