The wife of a Marine who was shot down over North Vietnam 20 years ago returned partial human remains to the Army, saying she was not convinced they were those of her husband. Kathryn Fanning returned the remains to the Army in a quiet ceremony at Colorado State University in Fort Collins. Fanning, of Oklahoma City, decided to return the remains after a forensic anthropologist exhumed the remains and confirmed there was no way to positively identify them as those of her husband, Maj. Hugh Michael Fanning.
