Title: Frozen bodies found, 40 years later
Post by: chokkan 2 on August 22, 2007, 11:30:27 AM

The snow-preserved body of an Indian soldier was given to his family Tuesday, nearly 40 years after he died in a plane crash in the Himalayas, an official said.
 
Soldiers discovered the frozen bodies of Mahendranath Phukan and two other victims half-buried in snow on a glacier at an altitude of 17,500 feet on a search earlier this month. (http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070821/od_nm/india_soldier_dc;_ylt=AtCDfKjdEDOuTc91m7Ok56vtiBIF)
