Today we facilitated and witnessed the formal ceremony for the repatriation of the remains of fallen US soldiers at the APEC Terminal in Port Moresby.

Representatives of the United States Military, the U.S. Embassy, the Papua New Guinea Defence Force (PNGDF), and the National Airports Corporation (NAC) gathered in reverence to honor this historic moment of remembrance.

To date, 307 remains have been identified through the Défense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA). The remains will be transferred to Hawaii, where they will undergo examination at a state of the art forensic laboratory, staffed by more than 40 anthropologists.

Specialists will take small samples and send them to a DNA investigation lab, where DNA is extracted and matched against family reference samples voluntarily donated by relatives. Once confirmed, families are formally notified, ensuring closure and recognition of their loved one’s sacrifice.

Nine U.S. Military personnel from the DPAA, alongside, PNGDF representatives, and the media team, took part in today’s ceremony. Their presence reflects the enduring partnership between Papua New Guinea and the United States in honouring the sacrifices of service members.

The war remains will be on their final journey home on Wednesday, 27 May 2026, before being reunited with families and laid to rest in their final resting place.

The National Airports Corporation (NAC) advises that the runway at Goroka Airport in the Eastern Highlands Province is now re-opened and safe for normal operations as of 9:30am this morning.

This follows inspections and rectification by PNG Air engineers and removal of the disabled Aircraft from the runway.

NAC thanks the traveling public for your patience and understanding during the temporary runway closure and we also acknowledge the cooperation of PNG Air Management and staff and all stakeholders in clearing the runway.

We assure the traveling public, airline partners, and business community that safety remains our highest priority.
