A World War II airman once missing in action was laid to rest Friday almost 80 years after his death.
2nd Lieutenant Milton Hymes Jr. is a young airman who vanished in combat and is now getting the tribute he never received.
Hymes was just 22 years old when his bomber went down over the Baltic Sea in 1944. More than 72,000 Americans are still missing from WWII, but after a year’s long recovery of his remains, Hymes, a Savannah High School graduate, is finally home.
