Notes
In December 2015, the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency exhumed the remains of an Unknown Soldier buried in Plot C Row 12 Grave 46 at Ardennes American Cemetery with the belief that an identification could be made. DNA analysis and historical evidence were used to positively identify the remains as belonging to Pvt. John P. Sersha, who served with the 325th Glider Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division and lost his life on September 27, 1944. His name is permanently inscribed on the Tablets of the Missing at Netherlands American Cemetery.
