Remains of Sgt. Keith 'Matt' Maupin located
"Welcome Home" Sgt. Keith 'Matt' Maupin, you now can rest in peace.
====================================
Remains of long-missing soldier finally ID'd
Sgt. Keith 'Matt' Maupin was captured in an ambush near Baghdad in 2004
BATAVIA, Ohio - The father of a soldier listed as missing-captured in Iraq since 2004 said Sunday that the military had informed him that his son's remains had been found.
Keith Maupin said an Army general told him DNA testing had identified the remains of his son, Sgt. Keith Matthew Maupin, or "Matt" as he was commonly known. He said the Army didn't say how or where in Iraq his son's remains were discovered, only that officials found a shirt similar to the one his son was wearing at the time of his disappearance.
"My heart sinks, but I know they can't hurt him anymore," Maupin said, speaking in the soldier's hometown near suburban Cincinnati.
