SNYDER COUNTY, Pa. — A crowd gathered along Route 11 to welcome home the remains of Army Pvt. Horace H. Middleton. Middleton was killed in action in India in 1944 while fighting in World War II.

"It was exciting," said Colleen Veitch, Horace's great niece. "We were very sad that the ones who really needed to know are not here any longer. But it is just amazing what they can do with DNA and whatnot."
