Crews from the United States and Japan returned to Kodiak yesterday, after about two weeks on Attu Island in the Aluetians. They were searching for the remains of more than two thousand Japanese soldiers killed during World War II.  A Kodiak Coast Guardsman played an instrumental role in unearthing the only remains found during the mission.
