Civil War sailors laid to rest 150 years later

Summary: Two men, found in the wreckage of the Civil War are being laid rest Friday.

Military lab used the samples of the sailors using their DNA. There were 5 to 6 men used for the lab and one of them, the teeth had been worn away where he held a pipe for his whole life. Researchers also used their cloths, gold rings, comb, coin, etc. to find other clues. One of the sailors had a different shoes on both sides of his foot. Researchers inference that he picked any clothes that were near to him while the ship was sinking. The Monitor's 1862 battle against the Confederate ironclad CSS Virginia was perhaps the most famous naval engagement of the Civil War. During that engagement, 16 people were lost. So on Friday, people will take all the appropriate steps necessary to recover those sailors with honor and dignities.

Related to Studies: It is about Civil War

Opinion: Interesting! I learned that the Civil War was happened in a recent time. 150 years! It is very interesting that the researchers can find out what was happening only with their clothing and their DNA. I wish people recover them as a honor.
