Show PLANS UNDERWAY FOR RETURN OF HONORED DEAD - i With the cessation of hostilities on all fronts a little more than a year hence, our government is keenly aware of the great debt we owe those who fell and died in our defense. Therefore in May, 1946, Congress passed and the President signed, Public Law 383, directing the War Dept. to make arrangements arrange-ments for the return and final burial bur-ial of the honored dead of World War H. The Quartermaster General, who was assigned the responsibility of accomplishing this program, has designated the Utah General Depot as a distribution center for the states of Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, Wyom-ing, Montana, Nevada, Idaho and part of Oregon. |
