Soldier's Body Laid To Rest Third Time In Hillgrove Cemetery

In Miamisburg Ohio the body of a Vietnam soldier was interred for the third time at Hillgrove Cemetery. Charles and Mrs. Dennis, who attended the first burial five years ago, doubt the remains are their son Mark V Dennis despite Navy confirmation. They seek a Navy inquiry into conflicting identifications as remains are reburied with an Unknown Soldier headstone. A firemen honor guard escorted the casket and Mayor Mears accepted the flag for city display. Mrs. Dennis reflected on the affair and sorrow with stoic resolve.
