When it became obvious that the unit would be overrun\, the unit made an escape on foot through the nearby mountains. For more than a week U.S. soldiers made their way through enemy controlled territory to get back to their unit but CWO Nava never arrived and he was declared missing in action. \nIt was later found that CWO Nava was taken as a Prisoner of War sometime after November 30\, 1950 and held captive by the North Koreans. The following spring after he was captured\, on May 31\, 1951 Nava died while in captivity. Between 1990 and 1994 North Korea sent numerous remains believed to be American servicemen back to the United States\, held for identification in Hawaii. CWO Nava’s remains were recently identified on June 22\, 2016. \n\n[/FONT]\n[/FONT] URL:https://www.patriotguard.org/mission/adolphus-david-usa-ww-ii-korea-holbrook/ CATEGORIES:Archive END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
