Welcome to the Not Old Better Show, Family Genealogy Interview Series on radio and podcast.  I'm Paul Vogelzang. Today's show is brought to you by Earth Breeze and Super Lucky Fun Frenzy Trivia

In honor of US service members, men and women worldwide, we have a great show today for Memorial Day.  I'll introduce our guest Kevin Kline in just a moment, but quickly, if you missed any episodes, last week was our 716th episode when I spoke with Dr. Kristi Tough DeSapri, women's bone health specialist and founding physician of Bone & Body Women's Health, to offer interviews and spread awareness of Postmenopausal Osteoporosis (PMO).  Two weeks ago I spoke with science writer  Dr. Marc J. Seifer, about his new book  Ozone Therapy for the Treatment of Viruses.   Excellent subjects for our Not Old Better Show audience.

In honor of Memorial Day and the USS Arizona, our guest today is Kevin Kline, executive director of Operation 85 and the USS Arizona.  There are still 85 "unknown" Navy and Marine service members from USS Arizona whose remains are in an unmarked graves.

Even though it's been 82 years since the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor, those who lost family members on December 7, 1941, continue to mourn the loss. Most of the 1,177 sailors and Marines killed in the attack on the USS Arizona went down with the ship and were never recovered. However, the remains of at least 85 (and possibly as many as 150) service members were recovered but not identified. They were buried, remains comingled,
