I am not sure those MIAs guys have left any relatives interested in being repatriated to receive holly services. Sounds hilarious, indeed.

Where are Davy Crockett's remains? He was captured and executed at the Alamo according to Santa Anna's official historical accounts.

body was removed elsewhere but most
historians believe he was cremated
since they know what happened to the
other bodies.

I bought Davy Crocket's fur hat at a yard sale a few years ago.
