A team of U.S. experts will travel to China early next week to inspect what the Chinese say are the remains of an American pilot missing since World War II, a spokesman for the U.S. Pacific Command said. Lt. Col. Richard E. Stevenson said the Peking government notified the United States in the last month that the remains of an American pilot had been found and could be turned over to U.S. officials. He said he did not know where the remains were. An estimated 78,000 Americans, both military and civilians, remain unaccounted for from the war.
