    It is unbelievable that those remains have been held up for so long. These soldiers gave their lives in service of their country and to be treated like this is disgraceful

    Stored in the high Commission in Port Moresby, do they have appropriate storage for human remains, and 12 years, crikey if they cannot identify them then they should of been buried with full honours at the closest Commonwealth war graves site. As we unlike the USA did not keep blood /DNA of our service men especially at that time.

    Vale to all the dead.
