Rosebud Sioux will meet with Army reps to discuss return of children's remains

PHILADELPHIA - The children died far from their families, stricken by tuberculosis, flu and loneliness, buried on the grounds of what was then the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, which today is the Army War College.

Now there’s a chance that some will be sent home to their tribes.

The head of Army cemeteries said in an interview that he’s open to meeting American Indian demands to repatriate children’s remains, provided talks on the matter prove fruitful and all regulations are met.
