The Army is set to begin a disinterment project to bring twelve Native American children back to their families and tribes.
This is the ninth year returning remains as part of the Army's disinterment program at the Carlisle Barracks Post cemetery. To date, 58 children have been returned to their families and tribes.
The Carlisle Indian Industrial School operated from 1879 through 1918, educating more than 10,000 Native American children with representation from approximately 50 tribes. All the youths died in the custody and control of the U.S. government while attending the former Carlisle Indian Industrial School. (Video by Dan Gleiter/PennLive.com)
