Burial is Saturday in Aikley for a Minnesota sailor who died nearly 80 years ago when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor.
Navy Fireman 1st Class Neal Todd had been buried in Hawaii, and his remains were not identified until 2015 through D-N-A testing.
His flag-draped remains were flown into Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport on Thursday, with dozens of his surviving relatives on hand.
Todd was 22 years old when he died along with more than four-hundred sailors on board the U-S-S Oklahoma on December 7th, 1941.
Funeral service take place at Our Lady of the Pines Catholic Church in Nevis, with Todd's remains carried to Akeley for burial at the town's cemetery.
The US Navy is taking part in the procession, and will conduct the burial with an honor guard and bugler.
Todd is being buried near his mother.
